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...
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...
Mineral Nitrogen and Phosphorus Pools Affected by Water Table Lowering and Warming in a Boreal Forested Peatland
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Native Boreal Seed Enhancement: Seed Pelleting
Resource
Improving seed emergence and survival is one of the largest potential benefits for native boreal seed enhancement. Seed pelleting can increase seed size by multiple orders of magnitude, resulting in...

On the Use of Mulching to Mitigate Permafrost Thaw due to Linear Disturbances in Sub-Arctic Peatlands
Resource
The presence or absence of permafrost strongly influences the hydrology and ecology of northern watersheds. Resource exploration activities are currently having profound effects on hydrological and...
Operational Vegetation Management
Resource
Vegetation management is critical to establishing desirable plant species and to achieving reclamation objectives. This resource is one of four technical notes on vegetation management for reclamation...
Paleolimnological Assessment of Past Hydro-ecological Variation at a Shallow Hardwater Lake in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region Before Potential Onset of Industrial Development
Resource
Effective environmental monitoring requires knowledge of inherent natural variation. In the absence of pre-development monitoring of aquatic ecosystems, paleolimnological approaches have been...
Peatland Wellsite Re-vegetation
Resource
Site re-vegetation is an important phase in peatland restoration. Prior to re-vegetating a peatland site, appropriate methods should be used to adjust the soil and address the hydrologic disturbance...
Petroleum Exploration Increases Methane Emissions from Northern Peatlands
Resource
Peatlands are globally significant sources of atmospheric methane (CH4). In the northern hemisphere, extensive geologic exploration activities have occurred to map petroleum deposits. In peatlands...
Podcast - The Science of Growing Forests
