Nutrition Integrates Environmental Responses of Ungulates
Resource
1. Nutrition influences most aspects of animal ecology: juvenile growth rates and adult mass gain, body condition, probability of pregnancy, over-winter survival, timing of parturition, and neonatal...
Peatland Restoration Increases Water Storage and Attenuates Downstream Stormflow but Does Not Guarantee an Immediate Reversal of Long-term Ecohydrological Degradation
Resource
Peatland restoration is experiencing a global upsurge as a tool to protect and provide various ecosystem services. As the range of peatland types being restored diversifies, do previous findings...
Population Structure and Hybridization of Alaskan Caribou and Reindeer: Integrating Genetics and Local Knowledge
Project
Organization:
This PhD project is an interdisciplinary study. The researcher used interviews with herders and hunters, local observations, and genetic analysis to understand how historical processes influence...
Population Structure and Hybridization of Alaskan Caribou and Reindeer: Integrating Genetics and Local Knowledge
Resource
Abstract Alaskan caribou ( Rangifer tarandus granti) are a valued game species and a key grazer in Alaska's terrestrial ecosystem. Caribou herds, defined by female fidelity to calving grounds, are...
Potential for Using Remote Sensing to Estimate Carbon Fluxes Across Northern Peatlands – A Review
Resource
Peatlands store large amounts of terrestrial carbon and any changes to their carbon balance could cause large changes in the greenhouse gas (GHG) balance of the Earth's atmosphere. There is still much...
Rapid Transformation of Tundra Ecosystems From Ice-wedge Degradation
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...
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 Boreal-Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset
Resource
Here we present the Boreal–Arctic Wetland and Lake Dataset (BAWLD), a land cover dataset based on an expert assessment, extrapolated using random forest modelling from available spatial datasets of...
The Study of Human-caribou Systems in the Face of Change: Using Multiple Disciplinary Lenses
Project
Organization:
This PhD project uses multiple disciplinary lenses to understand the dynamics of the social-ecological systems that are of critical importance to northern Indigenous Peoples of the Arctic. Barren...
The Study of Human-caribou Systems in the Face of Change: Using Multiple Disciplinary Lenses
Resource
Abstract Barren-ground caribou herds are part of social-ecological systems that are of critical importance to northern Indigenous Peoples of the Arctic, contributing to nutritional, cultural, and...
Video - Where Do You Look for Evidence of Fires From Thousands of Years Ago?
Resource
This presentation describes how coring lake sediments gives us information on fire history, providing data on fire frequency, severity and what actually burned.
Voices of the Caribou People: A Participatory Videography Method to Document and Share Local Knowledge From the North American Human-Rangifer Systems
Resource
“Voices of the Caribou People” is a participatory videography project for documenting and sharing the local knowledge of caribou-user communities about social-ecological changes. The project was...
Warming Response of Peatland CO2 Sink is Sensitive to Seasonality in Warming Trends
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...
