Journal ArticleDOI
Methane fluxes from three peatlands in the La Grande Rivière watershed, James Bay lowland, Canada
Luc Pelletier,Luc Pelletier,Tim R. Moore,Nigel T. Roulet,Michelle Garneau,Véronique Beaulieu-Audy +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured CH4 fluxes on vegetated surfaces (2003) and pools (2004) of three peatlands (LG1-LG2-LG3) located 30, 100, and 200 km along a transect from the James Bay coast, in the La Grande Riviere watershed, James Bay lowland, Quebec, Canada Fluxes were measured with static chambers at sites chosen to represent the biotypes characteristic of each peatland.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the first comprehensive assessment of the carbon (C) footprint associated with the creation of a boreal hydroelectric reservoir (Eastmain-1 in northern Quebec, Canada).
Journal ArticleDOI
Insights and issues with estimating northern peatland carbon stocks and fluxes since the Last Glacial Maximum
Julie Loisel,Julie Loisel,Simon van Bellen,Luc Pelletier,Julie Talbot,Gustaf Hugelius,Gustaf Hugelius,Daniel Karran,Daniel Karran,Zicheng Yu,Jonathan E. Nichols,James R. Holmquist,James R. Holmquist +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify and address key uncertainties related to four local and global controls of Holocene northern peatland carbon stocks and fluxes, and propose new research directions to improve these calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Greenhouse gas fluxes from boreal forest soils during the snow-free period in Quebec, Canada.
Sami Ullah,Sami Ullah,Rebeccah Frasier,Rebeccah Frasier,Luc Pelletier,Luc Pelletier,Tim R. Moore,Tim R. Moore +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, soil fluxes of methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and carbon dioxide (CO2) from 12 sites located in four major forest types, black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) BSP), jack pine (Pinus banksiana Lamb.), aspen (Populus spp.), and alder (Alnus spp.) stands, in the Eastmain and Chibougamau regions of Quebec.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation in CO2 exchange over three summers at microform scale in a boreal bog, Eastmain region, Québec, Canada
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined variability in carbon dioxide (CO2) exchange as a function of meteorological conditions using static chambers across a peatland microtopographic gradient (high hummock, low hummocks, lawn and hollow microforms).
