A polygon coverage showing the location of coalfields with coalbed methane (cbm) potential in BC

The goal of this carbon cycle study is to: * better understand wetland carbon uptake and losses to the atmosphere across watersheds * evaluate wetland carbon’s usefulness as a natural climate solution __Study sites__ Study sites for this project are: * Big Creek Watershed in Southern Ontario * White River in the experimental forest area in Northern Ontario We chose these sites to represent relatively data-scarce regions of Ontario, and locations that represent: * recently restored wetland * an undisturbed wetland These locations can show how wetlands can act as natural climate solutions. __Wetlands and climate change__ Wetlands absorb and release atmospheric carbon as plants grow and decompose. If wetlands absorb more carbon than they release, they can act as natural climate solutions. Wetland restoration and wetland preservation: * promotes carbon uptake by wetlands in Ontario * slows future climate warming Wetland carbon exchange with the atmosphere varies immensely across space and time. These continuous measurements are used to: * calculate the amount of carbon moving between the air, plants and soils of wetlands * improve numerical models that will help us predict how wetland carbon exchanges might respond to climate warming at these locations and other locations __Download the study data__ We submit this data to Ameriflux, which is a network of sites measuring ecosystem CO2, water and energy fluxes in North, Central and South America.
