Biogeochemical Response to Vegetation and Hydrologic Change in an Alaskan Boreal Fen Ecosystem
Resource
Boreal peatlands store approximately one third of the earth’s terrestrial carbon, locked away in currently waterlogged and frozen conditions. Peatlands of boreal and arctic ecosystems are affected...
Digging Into Canadian Soils - An Introduction to Soil Science
Resource
Written entirely by members of the Canadian Society of Soil Science, "Digging into Canadian Soils: An Introduction to Soil Science" provides an introduction to the core disciplines of soil science...
Does Connectivity Exist for Remnant Boreal Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) Along the Lake Superior Coastal Range? Options for Landscape Restoration
Resource
Study of whether animal movement can be discerned, using genetic population and relatedness analyses, within and beyond the Lake Superior Coastal Range.
Peat Loss Collocates with a Threshold in Plant–Mycorrhizal Associations in Drained Peatlands Encroached by Trees
Resource
Drainage-induced encroachment by trees may have major effects on the carbon balance of northern peatlands, and responses of microbial communities are likely to play a central mechanistic role. We...
Temperature, Moisture and Freeze–thaw Controls on CO2 Production in Soil Incubations From Northern Peatlands
Resource
Peat accumulation in high latitude wetlands represents a natural long-term carbon sink, resulting from the cumulative excess of growing season net ecosystem production over non-growing season (NGS)...
The Impacts of Forest Management Strategies for Woodland Caribou Vary Across Biogeographic Gradients
Resource
Loss or alteration of forest ecosystems due to anthropogenic activities has prompted the need for mitigation measures aimed at protecting habitat for forest-dependent wildlife. Understanding how...
The Third Generation of Pan-Canadian Wetland Map at 10 m Resolution Using Multisource Earth Observation Data on Cloud Computing Platform
Resource
Development of the Canadian Wetland Inventory Map (CWIM) has thus far proceeded over two generations, reporting the extent and location of bog, fen, swamp, marsh, and water wetlands across the country...
The Vegetation of Fens in Relation to Their Hydrology and Nutrient Dynamics: A Case Study
Resource
Species-rich quaking fens have become rare in Western Europe. In Great Britain, Germany and The Netherlands they have been drained and turned into agricultural land. In The Netherlands small fens have...

Wetland Functioning in Relation to Biodiversity Conservation and Restoration
Resource
Wetland ecosystems are a natural resource of global significance. Historically, their high level of plant and animal (especially bird) diversity is perhaps the major reason why wetland protection has...
