Briefing Note: Community Forestry in Canada
(Centre for Forest Interdisciplinary Research, University of Winnipeg, 2016)
Global economic instability, the need for local adaptation to climate change impacts, and Supreme Court rulings over Aboriginal and Treaty Rights have drawn attention to community dissatisfaction with centralized approaches ...
Global Water Governance and Climate Change: Identifying Innovative Arrangements for Adaptive Transformation
(MDPI AG, Basel, Switzerland., 2018)
A convoluted network of different water governance systems exists around the world.
Collectively, these systems provide insight into how to build sustainable regimes of water use and management. We argue that the challenge ...
Aboriginal Capacity Building Achievements for Sustainable Natural Resource Development
(Centre for Forest Interdisciplinary Research, University of Winnipeg, 2016)
This knowledge synthesis report provides the first bibliometric profile and systemic review of research on Aboriginal capacity building for natural resource development in Canada.
Ecosystem Perceptions in Flood Prone Areas: A Typology and Its Relationship to Preferences for Governance
(MDPI AG, Basel, Switzerland, 2016)
A shift appears to be occurring in thinking about flooding, from a resistance-based approach to one of resilience. Accordingly, how stakeholders in flood-prone regions perceive the system and its governance are salient ...

Gypsum Amendment Reduces Redox-Induced Phosphorous Release from Freshly Manured, Flooded Soils to Floodwater
(American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America, 2019-01-01)
The effectiveness of gypsum in reducing runoff P losses from soils and the mechanisms responsible are well documented; however, gypsum amendment effects in reducing redox-induced P losses from flooded soils are less ...
Degree of Phosphorus Saturation as a Predictor of Redox-Induced Phosphorus Release from Flooded Soils to Floodwater
(American Society of Agronomy, Crop Science Society of America, and Soil Science Society of America, 2019-11-01)
Phosphorus (P) loss from soils is often enhanced under flooded, anaerobic conditions, increasing the risk of freshwater eutrophication. We aimed to develop a predictive tool to identify soils with greater P release potential ...
Are community forestry principles at work in Ontario’s County, Municipal, and Conservation Authority forests?
(The Forestry Chronicle, 2012)
Ontario’s County, Municipal and Conservation Authority forests have received little attention within the academic literature on community forestry in Canada. These “Agreement Forests”, as they were once called, are a product ...
Probing the relationship between ecosystem perceptions and approaches to environmental governance: an exploratory content analysis of seven water dilemmas
