Panel Discussion – What is Successful Reclamation?
Resource
Government: The Government's perception of successful reclamation may be different than that of the landowner or the operator or any of the other interest groups or all of them. It is not the...
Partitioning Forest-Floor Respiration into Source Based Emissions in a Boreal Forested Bog: Response to Experimental Drought
Resource
Northern peatlands store globally significant amounts of soil carbon that could be released to the atmosphere under drier conditions induced by climate change. We measured forest floor respiration (R...
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...
Peatland Drainage and Improvement Program (Phase 2): Controlling Water Table Levels to Enhance Tree Establishment and Growth
Resource
Three experimental forest drainage sites were established in Alberta’s boreal forest to determine the effects of lowered water tables on soils, local hydrology, ground vegetation composition and tree...
Peatlands Promote Fire Refugia In Boreal Forests Of Northern Alberta, Canada
Resource
Abstract In the boreal forests of North America, large wildfires often leave residual patches of unburned vegetation, termed fire refugia, which can affect post-fire ecosystem processes. Although...
Petawawa Research Forest: Applied Science at its Finest!
Resource
Since 1918, forest researchers have used the Petawawa Research Forest to establish long term experiments and have collected data using varied and innovative techniques to learn how trees grow within...
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...
Physiology and Mechanisms of Airborne Pollutant Injury to Vegetation, 1979-80
Resource
Appreciable changes in biochemical functions in an epiphytic lichen, Evernia mesomorpha, were observed in response to controlled SO2 exposures even at a very low SO2 concentration (0.1 ppm)
Phytoremediation Efficacy of Salix discolor and S. eriocephela on Adjacent Acidic Clay and Shale Overburden on a Former Mine Site: Growth, Soil, and Foliage Traits
Resource
Plants regularly experience suboptimal environments, but this can be particularly acute on highly disturbed mine sites such as the extensive coal mine spoils in central New Brunswick. Willows have...
