The long-term goal of this research over the next 15-20 years is to substantially advance the understanding of how Canadian arctic tundra ecosystems function, and therefore how they are likely to be affected by these perturbations including climate change, and resource development and extraction.
This research will work to answer the following questions:
1) Apart from birch, which other spec...
