Controls on Plot-Scale Growing Season CO2 and CH4 Fluxes in Restored Peatlands: Do They Differ From Unrestored and Natural Sites?
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...
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...
Graminoids Vary in Functional Traits, Carbon Dioxide and Methane Fluxes in a Restored Peatland: Implications for Modeling Carbon Storage
Resource
One metric of peatland restoration success is the re-establishment of a carbon sink, yet considerable uncertainty remains around the timescale of carbon sink trajectories. Conditions post-restoration...
High-Resolution Minirhizotrons Advance our Understanding of Root-Fungal Dynamics in an Experimentally Warmed Peatland
Resource
Mycorrhizal fungi enable plants to thrive in the cold, waterlogged, organic soils of boreal peatlands and, with saprotrophic fungi, largely contribute to the sequestration of atmospheric carbon in...

Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...
Interweaving Local, Expert, and Indigenous Knowledge into Quantitative Wildlife Analyses: A Systematic Review
Resource
Inclusion of local, expert, or Indigenous knowledge about wildlife populations and their habitats can inform wildlife research, while also increasing knowledge holder engagement and support for...
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...
Litter Decomposition and Nutrient Dynamics of Four Macrophytes in Intact, Restored, and Constructed Freshwater Marshes of Canada
Resource
The restoration and construction of wetlands offer opportunities to rewet soils, inhibit decomposition, and enhance nutrient retention in decomposing litters. Here, we report the decomposition rates...

Organization:
Project Description: This trial test a new operational forest harvesting approach in two cutting agglomerations to facilitated road dismantling (integrated approach). We test different changes and...
Potential Impact of Restricted Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) Consumption on Anemia Prevalence Among Inuit Adults in Northern Canada
Resource
Abstract Background Caribou ( Rangifer tarandus) is the top dietary source of iron and several micronutrients necessary for red blood cell production (erythropoiesis) in the contemporary diet of Inuit...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
The Essential Carbon Service Provided by Northern Peatlands
Resource
Northern peatlands have cooled the global climate by accumulating large quantities of soil carbon (C) over thousands of years. Maintaining the C sink function of these peatlands and their immense long...
The Impacts of Climate and Social Changes on Cloudberry (Bakeapple) Picking: A Case Study from Southeastern Labrador
Resource
Abstract The traditional subsistence activities of Indigenous communities in Canada's subarctic are being affected by the impacts of climate change, compounding the effects of social, economic and...
