Lake Acidification Potential in the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area
Resource
Planned increases in oil sands developments with increased outputs of oxides of sulphur and nitrogen, led to a definitive study to assess the susceptibility of nearby lakes to acidification
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...
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...
Lowering the Rate of Timber Harvesting to Mitigate Impacts of Climate Change on Boreal Caribou Habitat Quality in Eastern Canada
Resource
This study evaluates how climate change will affect boreal caribou habitat over the 2030–2100 horizon and in a 9.94 Mha study area, using a climate-sensitive simulation ensemble that integrates...
