Peat Depth as a Control on Sphagnum Moisture Stress During Seasonal Drought
Resource
A critical ‘threshold’ peat depth specific for different hydrogeological and hydroclimatic regions can be used to assess what peatlands are especially vulnerable to climate change mediated drought.
Peat Surface Compression Reduces Smouldering Fire Potential as a Novel Fuel Treatment for Boreal Peatlands
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...
Peat Swamp Hydrological Connectivity and Runoff Vary by Hydrogeomorphic Setting: Implications for Carbon Storage
Resource
Despite their importance in carbon cycling and catchment runoff dynamics, the hydrology of temperate peat swamps in response to changing hydrometeorological conditions is largely understudied. We...
Peatland Drainage and Improvement Program (Phase 2): Controlling Water Table Levels to Enhance Tree Establishment and Growth
Resource
Three experimental forest drainage sites were established in Alberta’s boreal forest to determine the effects of lowered water tables on soils, local hydrology, ground vegetation composition and tree...
Peatlands Promote Fire Refugia In Boreal Forests Of Northern Alberta, Canada
Resource
Abstract In the boreal forests of North America, large wildfires often leave residual patches of unburned vegetation, termed fire refugia, which can affect post-fire ecosystem processes. Although...
Peatlands Reduce Fire Severity and Promote Fire Refugia in Boreal Forests
News

In the boreal biome of North America, large wildfires usually leave behind residual patches of unburned vegetation, termed refugia, which can strongly affect post-fire ecosystem processes. While...
Petawawa Research Forest: Applied Science at its Finest!
Resource
Since 1918, forest researchers have used the Petawawa Research Forest to establish long term experiments and have collected data using varied and innovative techniques to learn how trees grow within...
Physiology and Mechanisms of Airborne Pollutant Injury to Vegetation, 1979-80
Resource
Appreciable changes in biochemical functions in an epiphytic lichen, Evernia mesomorpha, were observed in response to controlled SO2 exposures even at a very low SO2 concentration (0.1 ppm)
Phytoremediation Efficacy of Salix discolor and S. eriocephela on Adjacent Acidic Clay and Shale Overburden on a Former Mine Site: Growth, Soil, and Foliage Traits
Resource
Plants regularly experience suboptimal environments, but this can be particularly acute on highly disturbed mine sites such as the extensive coal mine spoils in central New Brunswick. Willows have...
