The content of the webcasts was researched and developed through interviews with community members and by working with a creative director. Four themes were recognized (food security, energy security, economic security, and cultural renaissance), and the webcasts described the T'Sou-ke First Nation's activities within these areas to strengthen their adaptive capacity and identify vulnerabilities, opportunities and risks. Review and editing was performed by both Centre for Indigenous Environmental Resources (CIER) and the T'Sou-ke First Nation.

In spring and summer 2017, the U.S. Geological Survey's Gas Hydrates Project conducted two cruises aboard the research vessel Hugh R. Sharp to explore the geology, chemistry, ecology, physics, and oceanography of sea-floor methane seeps and water column gas plumes on the northern U.S. Atlantic margin between the Baltimore and Keller Canyons. Split-beam and multibeam echo sounders and a chirp subbottom profiler were deployed during the cruises to map water column backscatter, sea-floor bathymetry and backscatter, and subsurface stratigraphy associated with known and undiscovered sea-floor methane seeps. The first cruise, known as the Interagency Mission for Methane Research on Seafloor Seeps and designated as field activity 2017-001-FA, was conducted from May 4 to May 11, 2017, and acquired geophysical data to support remotely operated vehicle exploration of seep sites using the Global Explorer, which is operated by Oceaneering International, Inc. Geophysical operations during cruise 2017-002-FA from August 25 to September 6, 2017, were also focused on mapping water column methane plumes, sea-floor seep sites, and subseafloor strata, but primarily supported conductivity, temperature, and depth instrument deployment, surface-water methane-concentration mapping, and water-sampling operations as part of a collaborative study with the University of Rochester of the effect of methane seepage on ocean water biogeochemistry. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Office of Ocean Exploration and Research partially sponsored cruise 2017-001-FA, and the U.S. Department of Energy partially sponsored both cruises.

Soil is collected in three parallel transects (2 m apart) that are 300 m long. Each transect has 31 samples that are irregularly spaced. Soil is collected by removing the surface vegetation and viable plants. Soil is sieved through 4.5 mm, frozen as soon as practical. Soil properties such as organic carbon, organic nitrogen, exchangeable nutrients, texture, pH are collected using standard protocols. DNA is extracted and then analyzed for the diversity and prevalence of various genotypes. Greenhouse gas flux is data is also collected.

Data from the Panama Canal Authority (ACP) Gamboa meteorological station.Most ACP meteorological stations provide the following parameters: air temperature, wind speed and direction, dew point, relative humidity, air pressure, solar radiation. Some stations, for some years (depending on what parameters the ACP made available that year) include interval max/min values, in addition to the interval average values.Data have been freely provided by the Panama Canal Authority and are in the public domain.Any publication using these data should credit the Panama Canal Authority.Most data have been curated by STRI's Physical Monitoring Program.All data are provided on an 'as is' basis.

This is a georeferenced raster image of a printed paper map of the Julienne Creek, British Columbia region (Sheet No. 094G01), published in 1954. It is the first edition in a series of maps, which show both natural and man-made features such as relief, spot heights, administrative boundaries, secondary and side roads, railways, trails, wooded areas, waterways including lakes, rivers, streams and rapids, bridges, buildings, mills, power lines, terrain, and land formations. This map was published in 1954 and the information on the map is current as of 1954. Maps were produced by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) and it's preceding agencies, in partnership with other government agencies. <b>Please note:</b> image / survey capture dates can span several years, and some details may have been updated later than others. Please consult individual map sheets for detailed production information, which can be found in the bottom left hand corner. Original maps were digitally scanned by McGill Libraries in partnership with Canadiana.org, and georeferencing for the maps was provided by the University of Toronto Libraries and Eastview Corporation. Maps were produced with the cooperation of various Federal Government Agencies starting in the 1940s and continuing into the present. The map series provides national coverage of Canada, and is based on the National Topographic System (NTS). Each 1:50 000 scale map covers an area approximately 1,000 square kilometres. Levels of government as well as private business use maps at this scale for flood control, forest fire control, real estate planning, development of natural resources, environmental issues, right-of-way, highway planning, and depiction of crop areas.

As a result, wind energy facilities are increasingly being installed in forests,2,3 despite the fact that forests are crucial for the protection of terrestrial biodiversity.4 This green-green dilemma is particularly evident for bats, as most species at risk of colliding with wind turbines roost in trees.2 With some of these species reported to be declining,5-8 we see an urgent need to understand how bats respond to wind turbines in forested areas, especially in Europe where all bat species are legally protected. We used miniaturized global positioning system (GPS) units to study how European common noctule bats (Nyctalus noctula), a species that is highly vulnerable at turbines,9 respond to wind turbines in forests. Data from 60 tagged common noctules yielded a total of 8129 positions, of which 2.3% were recorded at distances <100 m from the nearest turbine. Bats were particularly active at turbines <500 m near roosts, which may require such turbines to be shut down more frequently at times of high bat activity to reduce collision risk. Beyond roosts, bats avoided turbines over several kilometers, supporting earlier findings on habitat loss for forest-associated bats.10 This habitat loss should be compensated by developing parts of the forest as refugia for bats. Our study highlights that it can be particularly challenging to generate wind energy in forested areas in an ecologically sustainable manner with minimal impact on forests and the wildlife that inhabit them.

Compressed folder contains all files for the 3-population analyses using all replicated genotypes from the three local tree populations sampled nearest to each plantation location. Within the directory, individual files contain data for each garden (AZ, AB, or UT) in each year (2010 or 2011) for each trait (bud flush, bud set, or height and diameter).
