The development of novel biomarkers to help assess whether polar bear (Ursus maritimus) health is impacted by long-term physiological stress associated with climate change represents an emerging area of research. With progressively greater reductions in sea ice cover and a corresponding decrease...

North Saskatchewan Watershed Alliance (NSWA)

The effects of climate change on water yield on the North Saskatchewan River Basin (NSRB) will affect water use and water management in the basin. There is a need to assess the potential effects so that watershed planners can implement mitigation measures to minimize negative effects. The scope...

Abstract: Human-aided movement of species populations in large-scale reforestation programs could be a potent and cost-effective climate change adaptation strategy. Such large-scale management interventions, however, tend to entail the risks of unintended consequences, and we propose that three...

A changing climate is the largest threat to forest productivity in western Canada and to the ability of forested landscapes to provide ecological and economic services, both now and in the future. As climate changes, locally adapted tree populations become mismatched with local conditions,...

This dissertation joins a vibrant conversation about atheism in Canada. Although the sociology of non-religion has exploded in the last decade, Canada remains an understudied component of atheism research. Consequently, the focus of this research is secularist activists in a major Canadian city,...

Newton, Jeffrey S.

Soils have traditionally been treated as a “black box” due to the challenges of studying this complex medium. The living component of soil consists of a complex network of roots and mostly very small, highly abundant, and extremely diverse group of microbes, protists, and other invertebrates. In...

Climate change is driving the loss of alpine glaciers globally, yet investigations about the water quality of rivers stemming from them are few. In Chapter 2, we provide an overview of a biogeochemical dataset containing 200+ parameters that we collected between 2019-2021 from 14 sampling sites...

Roberts, David R.

Over the last two million years, the evolution of North American tree species, subspecies, and genetic varieties has taken place in a constantly changing landscape often dominated by extensive ice sheets and restricted temperate climate environments. Here, I approximately reconstruct post-glacial...
