Peatland Restoration Pathways to Mitigate Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Retain Peat Carbon
Resource
Peatlands play a crucial role in the global carbon (C) cycle, making their restoration a key strategy for mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and retaining C. This study analyses the most common...
Protecting Boreal Caribou Habitat Can Help Conserve Biodiversity and Safeguard Large Quantities of Soil Carbon in Canada
Resource
Boreal caribou require large areas of undisturbed habitat for persistence. They are listed as threatened with the risk of extinction in Canada because of landscape changes induced by human activities...
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...
Sphagnum Mosses, the Impact of Disturbances and Anthropogenic Management Actions on their Ecological Role in CO2 Fluxes Generated in Peatland Ecosystems
Resource
Mosses of the genus Sphagnum are the dominant vegetation in most pristine peatlands in temperate and high-latitude regions. They play a crucial role in carbon sequestration, being responsible for ca...
Virtual Community Engagement Guide
Resource
Hosting effective online community events and meetings in rural, remote, and Indigenous Communities can be challenging. From tools and technology to logistics and engagement, this toolkit was created...
