Canada has extensive forests and peatlands that play key roles in global carbon cycle. Canadian soils and peatlands are assumed to store approximately 20% of the world’s soil carbon stock. However...
The fruticose lichens Cladina stellaris and Cladina rangiferina, form thick mats that can cover large areas of northern peatlands (above c. 50° latitude), including the extensive peatlands of the...

In most years, evaporation exceeds summer rainfall. Using natural aspen stands as a comparison, it is expected that water use from the soil cover will continue to increase as the ecosystem ages.
The British Columbia Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy has released new regulations for soil relocation in B.C. effective March 1, 2023. The provincial soil relocation process has...
Habitat restoration is an integral component in British Columbia’s approach to woodland caribou recovery. The goal is to restore large tracts of the woodland caribou’s habitat and to limit human and...

Despite their importance in carbon cycling and catchment runoff dynamics, the hydrology of temperate peat swamps in response to changing hydrometeorological conditions is largely understudied. We...
Wetlands across the globe have long served as natural repositories for humanity’s toxic legacy, absorbing and retaining hundreds to thousands of years’ worth of pollution. These swampy vaults have...
