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 Effects of Black Spruce Fuel Management on Surface Fuel Condition and Peat Burn Severity in an Experimental Fire
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...
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 Hydrochemical Evolution of a Constructed Peatland in a Post-mining Landscape Six Years After Construction
Resource
Study Focus: Six years of hydrochemical data (2013 – 2018) from the Sandhill Fen Watershed (SFW), a 52-ha upland-peatland catchment that was built upon highly saline soft tailings, were used to...

Water for the Futures We Want - Opportunities for Research, Practice, and Leadership in Achieving SDG 6
Resource
Canada and the world are faced with unprecedented water-related challenges which impact our ability to meet many of the UN sustainable development goals. Climate warming and human actions are altering...
Webinar - Boreal Caribou Winter Range in the Central Mackenzie Valley, NWT: What is it, How Can We Manage For it Proactively?
Resource
Join us to explore the latest research supporting caribou recovery in Canada—from general ecology, to the mechanisms of caribou declines, to potential recovery options. The series begins with a...
Webinar - Boreal Water Futures
Resource
This presentation provides an introduction to the Boreal Water Futures program.
Webinar - Demographic Responses of Threatened Woodland Caribou to Annual Variation in Meteorological and Phenological Conditions
Resource
Climate change is expected to increasingly impact populations of woodland caribou and much focus has been placed on how a warming climate has facilitated the northward expansion of apparent...
Webinar - Future Directions on Caribou Monitoring and Conservation
Resource
In the firth episode of ABMI's bi-weekly webinar series called 'Our Nature to Know', Melanie Dickie presents ABMI's Future Directions on Caribou Monitoring and Conservation. In this presentation...
Webinar - Hot Hot Peat! Managing Boreal Peatland Wildfires in an Era of Climate Change
Resource
This presentation provides an overview of current boreal peatland wildfire research and of management approaches in the face of climate change.
Webinar - Indigenizing Science Part 1: Perspectives on Bioethics and Research Implications and Part 2: Indigenizing Science: Chronic Wasting Disease
Resource
Environmental and biological sciences are often siloed from examining Indigenous-related concerns, which can compromise Indigenous rights. Learning about braiding Indigenous ways of knowing and...
Webinar - iWETLAND: Managing Species at Risk Habitat through Wetland Water Level Citizen Science

Webinar - Movement, Energetics, and Demography of Norwegian Reindeer
Resource
In Norway, reindeer are fragmented into roughly 23 wild populations and 76 semi-domestic herding districts. The variation in forage quantity, migratory behaviour, and demography across these...
Webinar - Recovery Actions for Woodland Caribou: Predicting and Testing the Efficacy of Habitat Restoration
Resource
Anthropogenic habitat alteration via land conversion directly reduces habitat availability and disrupts ecological processes. Western Canada’s boreal forest has undergone rapid landscape change as a...
Webinar - Seasonal Patterns of Mortality for Boreal Caribou in the Southern Northwest Territories
Resource
Seasonality is an important component in shaping the dynamics that influence ecosystems, including mortality. We investigated temporal patterns of mortality in the boreal ecotype of woodland caribou (...
Webinar - Testing the Efficacy of Linear Restoration for Caribou Recovery in the Birch Mountains, Alberta Partnering for Restoration Success

Webinar - Wild Forest Reindeer Returns to its Historical Range – First Releases from Breeding Enclosures in a Finnish Reintroduction Project
Resource
The Finnish wild forest reindeer Rangifer tarandus fennicus occurred throughout Finland still in the 17th century. It was gradually hunted to nationwide extinction by the 1920s but started to re...
Wetland Successional State Affects Fire Severity in a Boreal Shield Landscape
Resource
Boreal peatland ecosystems are generally resilient to low severity wildfire. However, climate change may increase wildfire intensity and frequency, potentially shifting wetlands to less wildfire...
