Project DescriptionThe Labrador Boreal Caribou Population Monitoring Program is being implemented according to an action item outlined in the Woodland Caribou (Boreal population) in Newfoundland and...
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...
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...
The Doig River First Nation (DRFN) has prepared this madziih Traditional Knowledge and Restoration Study based on DRFN traditional ecological knowledge (TEK), as a step towards reclaiming this...

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.
A critical ‘threshold’ peat depth specific for different hydrogeological and hydroclimatic regions can be used to assess what peatlands are especially vulnerable to climate change mediated drought.

Despite their importance in carbon cycling and catchment runoff dynamics, the hydrology of temperate peat swamps in response to changing hydrometeorological conditions is largely understudied. We...
Wetlands across the globe have long served as natural repositories for humanity’s toxic legacy, absorbing and retaining hundreds to thousands of years’ worth of pollution. These swampy vaults have...
Identifying ecosystems resilient to climate and land-use changes is recognized as essential for conservation strategies. However, wetland ecosystems may respond differently to stressors depending on...
Newfoundland and Labrador is home to several herds of caribou; the island population, the migratory George River caribou (northern Labrador), and perhaps the most sensitive, the boreal herds of...
The Recovery Strategy for Woodland Caribou (Boreal population) in Labrador is a document prepared by the Labrador Woodland Caribou Recovery Team to identify recovery strategies deemed necessary, based...
