A storymap website that explains the importance of lichen as a food source for caribou and the first steps of a project for mapping lichen undertaken by Natural Resources Canada's Canada Centre for...
Historical Landscape Use of Migratory Caribou: New Insights From Old Antlers
Resource
Accumulations of shed caribou antlers ( Rangifer tarandus) are valuable resources for expanding the temporal scope with which we evaluate seasonal landscape use of herds. Female caribou shed their...
Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...

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...
Variation in Photosynthetic Properties Among Bog Plants
Resource
Plant functional types (PFTs) are used to make generalizations in modeling how plants impact ecosystem functioning. In boreal bogs the number of plant species is small, but several PFTs are...
