Climate change is affecting species’ distributions and abundances worldwide. Baseline population estimates, against which future observations may be compared, are necessary if we are to detect ecological change. Arctic sea ice ecosystems are changing rapidly and we lack baseline population...

Soil CO2 Efflux in Response to Forest Disturbances and its Spatial Variation in a Boreal Mixedwood Forest
DownloadSpring 2019
Soil CO2 efflux is a key component of the terrestrial carbon cycle as it is the second largest carbon flux between the atmosphere and terrestrial ecosystems after photosynthesis. The spatial and temporal variation of soil CO2 efflux can be altered by various disturbancess, which in turn alter...

Space and habitat use of polar bears (Ursus maritimus) in Davis Strait in relation to sea ice conditions and harp seals (Pagophilus groenlandicus)
DownloadFall 2022
Patterns of space use and habitat selection by polar bears (Ursus maritimus) vary among subpopulations where they have been studied. The Davis Strait subpopulation is one of the least researched polar bear subpopulations and their spatial ecology is largely unknown. As an obligate carnivore,...

Stream Carbon Flux in the Northern Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest: Seasonal DOC Transport and CO₂ and CH₄ Emissions
DownloadSpring 2020
Streams in British Columbia's humid, organic-rich Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest (PCTR) deliver globally significant yields of soil-derived dissolved organic carbon (DOC) to the ocean, which can affect ocean acidification, provide energy to coastal food webs, and off-gas to the atmosphere...

This thesis examines the constitutional limitations on federal action to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to combat climate change. I rely primarily on cases in other areas of economic policy including agricultural supply management, the control of inflation, the regulation of competition,...

The future influences of climate change and river regulation on high-latitude circulation as determined by ocean modelling
DownloadFall 2023
The Hudson Bay Complex (HBC), encompassing Foxe Basin (FB), Hudson Strait (HS), Ungava Bay (UB), Hudson Bay (HB), and James Bay (JB), experiences notable shifts in freshwater sources. Despite being smaller than the Arctic Ocean, the HBC annually receives around 900 km3 of river discharge,...

With over 300 new varieties of wheat registered in the past 15 years (Canadian Food Inspection Agency, n.d.), Canadian wheat producers have plenty of options to choose from when deciding which variety(ies) to grow. However, each year, wheat acreage in Western Canada is concentrated in a select...

Words That Start With E and Other Reasons for Librarians to Fight Climate Change and Climate Change Denial
Download2020-02-07
Ecology, economy, equity. Exemplars, educators, enablers. Librarianship centres around the values of community-building, access to information, and advocating for the public good, and so librarians are poised to be leaders when it comes to environmentally-friendly and sustainable practices and...
