Loss of Connectivity Among Island-dwelling Peary Caribou Following Sea Ice Decline
Resource
Global warming threatens to reduce population connectivity for terrestrial wildlife through significant and rapid changes to sea ice. Using genetic fingerprinting, we contrasted extant connectivity in...
Nunavut, Uqausivut, Piqqusivullu Najuqsittiarlavu (Caring for our Land, Language and Culture): The use of Land Camps in Inuit Knowledge Renewal and Research
Resource
Abstract Sharing stories in Inuit culture has been the foundation of knowledge transfer for generations. This is my story of learning, of research, learning through relationships, and learning from...
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...
Recent Climate Change has Driven Divergent Hydrological Shifts in High-latitude Peatlands
Resource
High-latitude peatlands are changing rapidly in response to climate change, including permafrost thaw. Here, we reconstruct hydrological conditions since the seventeenth century using testate amoeba...
Satellite Determination of Peatland Water Table Temporal Dynamics by Localizing Representative Pixels of A SWIR-Based Moisture Index
Resource
The OPtical TRApezoid Model (OPTRAM) is a physically-based approach for remote soil moisture estimation. OPTRAM is based on the response of short-wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance to vegetation water...
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 Scale of Effect of Landscape Context Varies with the Species’ Response Variable Measured
Resource
Abstract: Context To detect an effect of landscape context on a species’ response, the landscape variables need to be measured within the appropriate distance from the species’ response, i.e. at the...
The Spatial Scale of a Species’ Response to the Landscape Context Depends on which Biological Response You Measure

"Two-Eyed Seeing": An Indigenous Framework to Transform Fisheries Research and Management
Resource
Increasingly, fisheries researchers and managers seek or are compelled to “bridge” Indigenous knowledge systems with Western scientific approaches to understanding and governing fisheries. Here, we...

Video - Capture Sand in Flocculated Fines: A New Approach to optimize the Capture of Oil Sands Fines in Sand Beach
Resource
Ruijun Sun is a Senior Research Engineer with the Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC), Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Ruijun Sun describes a new way to optimize the capture of oil sands clay fines in sand...
Video - Cleaning Up Mines in Northern Saskatchewan
Resource
Uranium mining in the Athabasca Basin region in Northern Saskatchewan was developed in the early 1950s. The mines developed during this period were abandoned, leaving deep holes and mining debris...
Video - Cleaning up the Lorado Uranium Mill
Resource
In 1960, the Lorado Mill was abandoned in northern Saskatchewan, leaving an estimated 227,000 cubic meters of radioactive uranium tailings that covered the mill site and flowed into nearby Nero Lake...
Video - Column Consolidation Testing of Oil Sands Tailings
Resource
Ruijun Sun is a Senior Research Engineer with the Saskatchewan Research Council, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. He reports on consolidation testing of oil sands tailings from Total's Joslyn oil sands mine...
Video - Gunnar Mine Site Remediation Project in Northern Saskatchewan
Resource
The Gunnar Mine site is part of a cleanup project, Project CLEANS (Cleanup of Abandoned Northern Sites), managed by the Saskatchewan Research Council (SRC). Significant progress was made at Gunnar...
