Current Symptoms of Climate Change in Boreal Forest Trees and Wildlife
Resource
This is a chapter from the book, Boreal Forests in the Face of Climate Change: Sustainable Management . Measuring climate change impacts on forest ecosystems can be challenging, as many of these...
Improving the Fire Weather Index System for Peatlands using Peat-Specific Hydrological Input Data
Resource
The Canadian Fire Weather Index (FWI) system, even though originally developed and calibrated for an upland Jack pine forest, is used globally to estimate fire danger for any fire environment. However...

Moss Cellulose 18O Applied to Reconstruct Past Changes in Water Balance of a Boreal Wetland Complex, Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Overall, the study established existence of long-term groundwater source areas around the margins of the peatland, as well as contemporary permafrost thaw zones within the McClelland Wetland itself.
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 Role of Microhabitat for Bryophyte Establishment in Reclamation of Boreal Wetlands
Resource
Minerogenous peatlands that accumulate deep deposits of organic matter (fens) were an important part of the pre-disturbance landscape across Alberta’s oil sands mining area. Bryophytes occupy 80–100%...
