Length of Cold Stratification Period Affects Germination in Green alder (Alnus viridis (Chaix) DC. subsp. crispa (Aiton) Turrill) Seed Collected from Northwestern Alberta
Resource
Abstract: Alnus viridis (Chaix) DC. subsp. crispa (Aiton) Turrill (Betulaceae), commonly known as green alder or mountain alder, is a boreal shrub used to revegetate disturbed lands because of its...
Leveraging Genomics Tools to Explore Relationships Between Agriculture, Biodiversity and Waterfowl Productivity in Prairie Wetlands
Resource
Environmental genomics is a research method that sequences DNA from samples collected from the environment (e.g. wetlands, water, soil, organisms, etc.). This method can accelerate species...
Linear Disturbances Shift Boreal Peatland Plant Communities Toward Earlier Peak Greenness
Resource
Vast areas of boreal peatlands are impacted by linear disturbances known as seismic lines. Tree removal and ground disturbance alter vegetation communities and are expected to change ecosystem...
Linear Feature Restoration in Boreal Wetlands
Resource
This presentation discusses linear feature disturbances or boreal peatlands and reclamation trials of various sites. Presented at the NAIT 7th Seminar on Linear Disturbance Impacts on Boreal Wetland...
Local Controls on Tree Seedling Growth Following Mounding on Peatland Seismic Lines in Brazeau County and Lac La Biche, Alberta
Resource
Abstract Seismic lines in boreal peatlands are struggling to restore native canopy level vegetation. Mounding is a common restoration method that provides an advantageous growing environment for...
Local Hydroclimatic Influence on Black Spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P.) Anatomical Traits in Two Boreal Fen Peatlands
Resource
As global temperatures increase, ongoing research is essential in understanding the long-term effects of climate change on tree dominated wetlands. Acting as a significant landform in the boreal...
Low Extent but High Impact of Human Land Use on Wetland Flora Across the Boreal Oil Sands Region
Resource
Boreal wetlands are at risk of degradation from anthropogenic activities including oil sands energy extraction. Despite efforts to monitor the impacts of oil sands energy extraction-related activities...
Making Sites Rough and Loose: A Soil Adjustment Technique
Resource
Rough and loose surface treatments provide an effective way to control erosion and create conditions that promote the revegetation of the site. By creating topographic heterogeneity the rough and...
