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...
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...
Investigation of Microbial Community Response During Oil Sands Reclamation via Lipid and Carbon Isotope Analyses
Resource
In this study, phospholipid fatty acids (PLFA) and carbon isotopes were used to characterize the response of in situ microbial communities to a pilot-scale wetland reclamation project in the Alberta...

Land Management Strategies for the Long-term Persistence of Boreal Woodland Caribou in Central Saskatchewan
Resource
Abstract We investigated landscape changes and their potential effects on woodland caribou-boreal ecotype ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) within a portion of the Smoothstone-Wapaweka Woodland Caribou...
Large Scale Mapping of Soil Organic Carbon Concentration with 3D Machine Learning and Satellite Observations
Resource
Canada has extensive forests and peatlands that play key roles in global carbon cycle. Canadian soils and peatlands are assumed to store approximately 20% of the world’s soil carbon stock. However...
Łeghagots'enete ́, (Learning Together): The Importance of Indigenous Perspectives in the Identification of Biological Variation
Resource
Using multiple knowledge sources to interpret patterns of biodiversity can generate the comprehensive species characterizations that are required for effective conservation strategies. Caribou...
Lichens: A Limit to Peat Growth?
Resource
The fruticose lichens Cladina stellaris and Cladina rangiferina, form thick mats that can cover large areas of northern peatlands (above c. 50° latitude), including the extensive peatlands of the...

Migratory Tundra Caribou Seasonal and Annual Distribution Relative to Thaidene Nene, a National Park Reserve Proposal in the East Arm of Great Slave Lake and Artillery Lake Area, Northwest Territories
Resource
Brief 2011 report on the use of Thaidene Nene National Park (NWT) by the Ahiak and Bathurst herds. This resource and others can be found on the Northern Caribou Canada website. To find more related...
Multi-year Assessment of Water and Energy Exchange From an Oil Sands Reclamation Cover, Fort McMurray, Canada
Resource
In most years, evaporation exceeds summer rainfall. Using natural aspen stands as a comparison, it is expected that water use from the soil cover will continue to increase as the ecosystem ages.
Muskox and Caribou Factsheet
Resource
A 2018 2-page fact sheet on competition between muskoxen and caribou, focused mostly on the Porcupine herd range. It concludes that, “...the two species are not likely to compete with each other for...
Natural Regeneration on Seismic Lines Influences Movement Behaviour of Wolves and Grizzly Bears
Resource
Across the boreal forest of Canada, habitat disturbance is the ultimate cause of caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) declines. Habitat restoration is a focus of caribou recovery efforts, with a goal...
