Effects of Narrow Linear Disturbances on Light and Wind Patterns in Fragmented Boreal Forests in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Forest fragmentation threatens forest biodiversity and ecosystem function. One of the concerns relates to increases in edge effects, which among other things affects the forest microclimate that...
Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...
Permafrost Thaw Causes Large Carbon Loss in Boreal Peatlands While Changes to Peat Quality are Limited
Resource
Rapid, ongoing permafrost thaw of peatlands in the discontinuous permafrost zone is exposing a globally significant store of soil carbon (C) to microbial processes. Mineralization and release of this...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
The Spatial Scale of a Species’ Response to the Landscape Context Depends on which Biological Response You Measure
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Webinar - Impact of Resource Extraction on Canada's Boreal Peatlands
Resource
This presentation highlights ongoing research in northern Alberta examining peatland carbon and greenhouse gas exchange as a measure of peatland ecosystem function.
Webinar - Remote Sensing of Boreal Wetlands: Strategies and Methods
Resource
This presentation provides an introduction to remote sensing and an overview of remote sensing approaches for mapping boreal wetlands.
Webinar - The Role of Wetlands in Forests and Forest Management
Resource
This presentation highlights the value of wetlands to forest management and the role wetlands play in sustaining healthy forested ecosystems.
Webinar - Wetlands and Forestry: Highlights of a Regulatory Review - Ont to BC
Resource
This presentation provides an overview of how wetlands are incorporated in the context of provincial forest management planning frameworks in Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and BC.
