Abstract. Permafrost thaw across Earth's high latitudes is leading to dramatic changes in vegetation and hydrology. We undertook a two-decade study near Fairbanks, Alaska, to measure permafrost thaw a...

The In a Time of Change program at the Bonanza Creek LTER brings together artists and scientists to generate new ways of seeing nature.

A major new study of NWT wildfires that smoulder through the winter surprised the scientists involved and has some lessons for the territory's firefighters.

We can’t see them, but there are more microbes — tiny fungi, bacteria, worms and other living things — in a teaspoon of soil than there are people on Earth.

What happens when seed dormancy meets climate change – and why it matters for our forests.

Now accepting applications for the 2024 cohort of LTER Graduate Writing Fellows.

Phylogenomic analysis of 7,923 angiosperm species using a standardized set of 353 nuclear genes produced an angiosperm tree of life dated with 200 fossil calibrations, providing key insights into...

A 1,000-mile snowmachine journey across Interior Alaska is helping the Fresh Eyes on Ice program monitor Alaska’s lake and river ice during freeze-up, over winter and during breakup. The University of

Scientists and others from remote communities across western Alaska and northern Canada concerned about the migration of beavers into the Arctic will gather at the University of Alaska Fairbanks later

Carbon offset programs often withhold 10 to 20 percent of offsets generated by a project, as a buffer against changes to the forest that might… This content i

Carbon sink in young boreal forests is more vulnerable to drought than in mature forests due to the greater contribution and drought sensitivity of understorey relative to trees, according to carbon flux assessments of managed boreal forests in northern Sweden during the 2018 European summer drought.
