The Traits of Plants in Canada (TOPIC) open access literature review module provides access to an open dataset of data gathered from the scientific literature. The Traits of Plants in Canada (TOPIC) database serves as a hub for centralizing knowledge on plant functional traits in Canada. Under...

Traits of Plants in Canada (TOPIC) Open Access provides an access to TOPIC datasets as data become publicly available. The database is organized in two separate modules: 1) The Literature review module aims to consolidate data gathered from the scientific literature. 2) The Empirical measurements...

The Traits of Plants in Canada (TOPIC) open access empirical measurements module provides access to an open dataset of direct observations collected in the field, laboratory, greenhouse or garden. The Traits of Plants in Canada (TOPIC) database serves as a hub for centralizing knowledge on plant...

Co-Vitas project traits data. The Co-VITAS project is investigating understory species (6 ubiquitous boreal species) response and adaptive capacity to environmental change, by measuring a set of leaf and root traits throughout the species range. We enlisted and coordinated the efforts of 23...

Foliar traits measured in one study were used to develop an applied model to help restoration practitioners select an ideal mix of species to plant to achieve their restoration goals. We used trait-function relationships to characterize the effects of species on ecosystem functions. The dataset...

Specific leaf area used in an investigation of the functional and structural recovery of seismic lines in upland boreal forests in northwestern Alberta and explore the use of forest management as a way to accelerate their recovery. Please site as: Santala, K., Schoonmaker, A., Aubin, I. 2020....

The Crop Condition Assessment Program (CCAP) is developed and maintained by the Remote Sensing and Geospatial Analysis Section (RSGA) within the Agriculture Division. The CCAP combines remote sensing, GIS, and the Internet to provide reliable, objective, and timely information on crop and...

We investigated the stable isotope hydrology of Sable Island, NS, Canada over a four year period from September, 2017 until August, 2021. The δ2H and δ18O values of integrated monthly precipitation were weakly seasonal and ranged from -66 to -17 per mil and from -9.7 to -3.1 per mil,...

In celebration of the tremendous diversity of tree species that tell the story of our culture and history, the NCC released in September 2020 a compilation of close to 170 remarkable trees across Canada’s Capital region entitled A Living Legacy: Remarkable Trees of Canada’s Capital. An...
