Results of Vegetation Survey as a Part of Neutralizing Lime Sludge Valorization Assessment
Resource
The use of the lime neutralization process is a common technique to treat acid mine drainage (AMD) generated by sulphidic mine wastes. The AMD-contaminated water collected on the mine site is...
Science-informed Policy Decisions Lead to the Creation of a Protected Area for a Wide-ranging Species at Risk
Resource
Protected areas are needed to conserve nature and biodiversity worldwide. The province of Québec (Canada) recently established a large wilderness area affording significant habitat protection for...
Socioenvironmental Changes in Two Traditional Food Species of the Cree First Nation of Subarctic James Bay
Resource
Socioenvironmental changes in Canada’s northern regions are likely to have wide-ranging implications for the health of its residents. Aboriginal communities are among the first to face the direct...

Socioenvironmental changes in Canada’s northern regions are likely to have wide-ranging implications for the health of its residents. Aboriginal communities are among the first to face the direct...
Spatial and Temporal Variation in Forest Transpiration Across a Forested Boreal Peatland Complex
Resource
Transpiration is a globally important component of evapotranspiration. Careful upscaling of transpiration from point measurements is thus crucial for quantifying water and energy fluxes. In spatially...
Stairway to Heaven or Highway to Hell? How Characteristics of Forest Roads Shape their use by Large Mammals in the Boreal Forest
Resource
By showing which forest roads are more used by caribou predators (wolves and bears) and its apparent competitor (moose), our study highlights the importance of considering both road-scale characteristics and the landscape context in which roads are built to prioritize the most detrimental roads to caribou conservation and guide efficient restoration efforts of its habitat.
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 Boreal-Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset
Resource
Here we present the Boreal–Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset (BAWLD), a land cover dataset based on an expert assessment, extrapolated using random forest modelling from available spatial datasets of...
“The Caribou Taste Different Now": Inuit Elders Observe Climate Change
Resource
In full colour with photos of the 145 contributing Inuit elders, “The Caribou Taste Different Now” grounds the discussions, debates, and discourses about climate change to material and everyday life in the contemporary Canadian Arctic.
The Direct and Habitat-mediated Influence of Climate on the Biogeography of Boreal Caribou in Canada
Resource
Effective species conservation efforts require insight into whether a species’ extent of occurrence may shift due to changing climate, habitat loss, or both. The extent of occurrence of the threatened...
The Hydrology of Interconnected Bog Complexes in Discontinuous Permafrost Terrains
Resource
In the zone of discontinuous permafrost, the cycling and storage of water within and between wetlands is poorly understood. The presence of intermittent permafrost bodies tends to impede and re-direct...
The Impacts of Climate and Social Changes on Cloudberry (Bakeapple) Picking: A Case Study from Southeastern Labrador
Resource
Abstract The traditional subsistence activities of Indigenous communities in Canada's subarctic are being affected by the impacts of climate change, compounding the effects of social, economic and...
The Role of Digital Data Entry in Participatory Environmental Monitoring
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...
The Unrecognized Importance of Carbon Stocks and Fluxes from Swamps in Canada and the USA
Resource
Swamps are a highly significant wetland type in North America both in terms of areal extent and their role in terrestrial carbon cycling. These wetlands, characterized by woody vegetation cover...
There is Still Time to Reconcile Forest Management With Climate-driven Declines in Habitat Suitability for Boreal Caribou
Resource
This study used the LANDIS-II forest landscape model to forecast boreal caribou habitat suitability across its distribution within the harvestable boreal forest in Québec for the period 2020–2100...
Thresholds in the Capacity of Boreal Caribou to Cope with Cumulative Disturbances: Evidence From Space Use Patterns
Resource

Trophic Niche Partitioning Between Two Prey and Their Incidental Predators Revealed Various Threats for an Endangered Species
Resource
Documenting trophic niche partitioning and resource use within a community is critical to evaluate underlying mechanisms of coexistence, competition, or predation. Detailed knowledge about foraging is...
