A Hydrogeological Landscape Framework to Identify Peatland Wildfire Smouldering Hot Sports
Resource
Northern peatlands are important global carbon stores, but there is concern that these boreal peat reserves are at risk due to increased fire frequency and severity as predicted by climate change...
A Hydrogeological Landscape Framework to Identify Peatland Wildfire Smouldering Hot Spots
Resource
This study used a combination of field measurements and modelling to assess the vulnerability of peat to smouldering in the Utikuma Region Study Area, Alberta, Canada.
A Strong Mitigation Scenario Maintains Climate Neutrality of Northern Peatlands
Resource
Northern peatlands store 300–600 Pg C, of which approximately half are underlain by permafrost. Climate warming and, in some regions, soil drying from enhanced evaporation are progressively...
Advances in Wetland Hydrology: The Canadian Contribution Over 75 Years
Resource
Wetlands are an integral part of the Canadian landscape, providing crucial ecohydrological services with globally significant benefits. Over the past 75 years, Canadian scientists have emerged as...
Billion Dollar Boreal Woodland Caribou and the Biodiversity Impacts of the Global Oil and Gas Industry
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...
Boreal Caribou Can Coexist with Natural but Not Industrial Disturbances
Resource
Abstract: For species at risk, it is important that demographic models be consistent with our most recent knowledge because alternate model versions can have differing predictions for wildlife and...
Braiding Indigenous Rights and Endangered Species Law
Resource
Endangered species laws effectively prevent species extinction but fall short in restoring abundance for culturally important species. Legal agreements between Indigenous peoples and countries...
Braiding Indigenous Rights and Endangered Species Law for Meaningful Species Recovery - Infographic
Resource
A new Science paper co-produced by Indigenous and Western authors highlights how Indigenous rights can pick up where endangered species laws fall short in recovering species to culturally-meaningful...
Caribou Encounters with Wolves Increase Near Roads and Trails: A Time-to-Event Approach
Resource
1. Caribou and reindeer Rangifer tarandus are declining across North America and Scandinavia in part from wolf Canis lupus-mediated apparent competition with more abundant ungulate prey species. While...
Comparing Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Western Science Woodland Caribou Habitat Models
Resource
Negotiating the complexities of wildlife management increasingly requires new approaches, especially where data may be limited. A robust combination of traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and...
Comparing Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Western Science Woodland Caribou Habitat Models
Resource

Controls on Plot-Scale Growing Season CO2 and CH4 Fluxes in Restored Peatlands: Do They Differ From Unrestored and Natural Sites?
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...
Critical Summer Foraging Tradeoffs in a Subarctic Ungulate
Resource
Summer diets are crucial for large herbivores in the subarctic and are affected by weather, harassment from insects and a variety of environmental changes linked to climate. Yet, understanding...
Demographic Responses of Nearly Extirpated Endangered Mountain Caribou to Recovery Actions in Central British Columbia
Resource
Recovering endangered species is a difficult and often controversial task that challenges status-quo land uses. Southern Mountain caribou are a threatened ecotype of caribou that historically ranged...
Ecohydrology by Thinking Outside the Bog: Shifting Paradigms in an Era of Shifting Peatland Ecosystems
Resource
Large shifts in vegetation distributions are occurring worldwide and at unprecedented rates. The most extreme of these regime shifts are expected to occur at ecosystem boundaries of both semi-arid and...
Effectiveness of Population-Based Recovery Actions for Threatened Southern Mountain Caribou
Resource
Habitat loss is affecting many species, including the southern mountain caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) population in western North America. Over the last half century, this threatened caribou...
