Large Scale Mapping of Soil Organic Carbon Concentration with 3D Machine Learning and Satellite Observations
Resource
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...
Lichens: A Limit to Peat Growth?
Resource
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...

Multi-year Assessment of Water and Energy Exchange From an Oil Sands Reclamation Cover, Fort McMurray, Canada
Resource
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.
New Soil Relocation Rules Now in Effect for British Columbia
News
Organization
The British Columbia Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy has released new regulations for soil relocation in B.C. effective March 1, 2023. The provincial soil relocation process has...
Operational Restoration Framework - Woodland Caribou Habitat Restoration in British Columbia
Resource
Habitat restoration is an integral component in British Columbia’s approach to woodland caribou recovery. The goal is to restore large tracts of the woodland caribou’s habitat and to limit human and...

Peat Depth as a Control on Sphagnum Moisture Stress During Seasonal Drought
Resource
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.

Peat Swamp Hydrological Connectivity and Runoff Vary by Hydrogeomorphic Setting: Implications for Carbon Storage
Resource
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...
Pollution timebombs: Contaminated wetlands are ticking towards ignition
News
Organization
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...
