Biogeochemical Response to Vegetation and Hydrologic Change in an Alaskan Boreal Fen Ecosystem
Resource
Boreal peatlands store approximately one third of the earth’s terrestrial carbon, locked away in currently waterlogged and frozen conditions. Peatlands of boreal and arctic ecosystems are affected...
Can Plant or Lichen Natural Abundance 15N Ratios Indicate the Influence of Oil Sands N Emissions on Bogs?
Resource
The 140,329 km 2 Athabasca Oil Sands Administrative Area (OSAA), which contains 8982 km 2 of bogs. Since the late 1970s, N emissions from oil sands development in the OSAA have steadily increased...
Learning From our Elders : Aboriginal Perspectives on Climate Change and Reindeer/Caribou Habitat in the Circumboreal Forest
Resource
This study explores two Indigenous communities, one reindeer (Ran gifer tarandus tarandus) herding community in northern Sweden and a woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) hunting community in...
Peat Loss Collocates with a Threshold in Plant–Mycorrhizal Associations in Drained Peatlands Encroached by Trees
Resource
Drainage-induced encroachment by trees may have major effects on the carbon balance of northern peatlands, and responses of microbial communities are likely to play a central mechanistic role. We...
The Third Generation of Pan-Canadian Wetland Map at 10 m Resolution Using Multisource Earth Observation Data on Cloud Computing Platform
Resource
Development of the Canadian Wetland Inventory Map (CWIM) has thus far proceeded over two generations, reporting the extent and location of bog, fen, swamp, marsh, and water wetlands across the country...
