BERA News Fall 2022
Resource
Understanding how birds respond to landscape disturbance is key to effective restoration. Two studies used non-invasive microphone arrays to determine the exact locations of singing individuals in the...
BERA News Spring 2022
Resource
Mounding is a common restoration technique designed to improve microsite conditions for planted seedlings in wetlands. There are a variety of strategies for constructing mounds, though, and how mounds...
Canadian Wetland Inventory using Google Earth Engine: The First Map and Preliminary Results
Resource
Although wetlands provide valuable services to humans and the environment and cover a large portion of Canada, there is currently no Canada-wide wetland inventory based on the specifications defined...
Challenges in Co-operative Reclamation Research
Resource
There may be different interpretations of cooperative reclamation research, so it is appropriate to explain how the term will be used in subsequent discussions. The basic concept is to broaden the...
Human-induced Behavioural Changes of Global Threatened Terrestrial Mammals
Resource
Abstract Aim: Understanding changes in the behaviour of threatened species responding to rapidly increasing human disturbances is critical for biodiversity conservation. Here, we synthesize a meta...
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...
Potential Retention of Dissolved Organic Matter by Soil Minerals During Wetland Water-Table Fluctuations
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...
Recent Climate Change has Driven Divergent Hydrological Shifts in High-latitude Peatlands
Resource
High-latitude peatlands are changing rapidly in response to climate change, including permafrost thaw. Here, we reconstruct hydrological conditions since the seventeenth century using testate amoeba...
Restoration of Linear Disturbances From Oil-and-gas Exploration in Boreal Landscapes: How can Network Models Help?
Resource
Abstract In western Canada, decades of oil-and-gas exploration have fragmented boreal landscapes with a dense network of linear forest disturbances (seismic lines). These seismic lines are implicated...
The Boreal Ecosystem Recovery and Assessment (BERA)
Project
Organization:
The boreal region of Alberta contains extensive disturbances from natural resource extraction. Roads, well pads, seismic lines (petroleum-exploration corridors), forest-harvest areas, and other...
The Edge 2022 (BERA Systhesis)
Resource
The central goal of the Boreal Ecosystem Recovery and Assessment (BERA) program is to understand the effects of industrial disturbance on natural ecosystem dynamics, and to develop strategies for...
The Edge: The BERA Program 2024 Synthesis Report
Resource
The 2024 issue of The Edge summarizes the following key findings: Plan A better understanding of passive recovery trajectories will help guide restoration planning LiDAR is a powerful planning tool...
