The Importance of Geology, Climate and Anthropogenic Disturbances in Shaping Boreal Wetland and Aquatic Landscape Types
Resource
This study quantified the distribution of wetland and aquatic wildlife-habitat landscape types in boreal Quebec and determined how wildlife habitats vary among climatic regimes and landforms.
The Influence of Uranium Mine Tailings on Tree Growth at Elliot Lake, Ontario
Resource
A four year study has been carried out to determine the ability of coniferous trees to aid in the reclamation of uranium tailings at Elliot Lake. Five species were planted: white cedar, white spruce...
The Pan-Canadian Approach and Priority Species
