Abstract Woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus) are one of the most iconic wildlife species in Canada. These large ungulates depend on undisturbed, interconnected assemblages of mature and old‐growth conifer forests for survival, and exhibit life‐history traits typical of K‐selected species (i.e., low reproductive rates, long generation times, and slow ...

Abstract The Northern Hemisphere (NH) permafrost areas harbor vast reservoirs of soil organic carbon (SOC), which are potentially at serious releasing risk due to climate change. However, projections of future changes in SOC stocks in these regions remain subject to large uncertainties. In this study, we constructed an integrated approach that combines

Abstract Lotic biogeochemical structure and function have been studied extensively, but rivers lack a functional classification system for assessing spatiotemporal variability in solute behavior. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) is a basal resource for aquatic communities, is chemically complex, and has aquatic and terrestrial sources and sinks. DOC is a

Prediction of Escaped Powerline‐Caused Fires in Alberta, Canada
Abstract Powerlines have increasingly become a source of wildfire ignitions, contributing to more escaped and catastrophic fires during extreme fire weather. Temporary power shutoffs are implemented to reduce this risk, yet decisions on their implementations are often based on limited scientific evidence.

Abstract Mediterranean wetlands significantly influence terrestrial carbon storage but lack comprehensive, long‐term carbon flux measurements, particularly those that distinguish fluxes between vegetated and open‐water surfaces. Inundation‐based restoration primarily aims to arrest drainage‐driven soil‐carbon loss; whether a re‐flooded wetland also ...

Abstract Erosion from ice‐rich permafrost thaw (“thermokarst”) alters tundra vegetation cover and soil moisture, and laterally transports organic material into lakes, altering net fluxes of carbon dioxide (FCO2), methane (FCH4), and nitrous oxide (FN2O).
