Northern wildfires may be more dangerous for the climate than they appear. Researchers found that fires in boreal forests can burn deep into peat soils, releasing ancient carbon stored for hundreds or ...
Boreal forests are continuing to shift northward as they warm due to climate change, satellite images taken over the last several decades show. Boreal forests are the world's largest terrestrial biome ...

Could the boreal forest be less fragile than we think? Contrary to the predictions of models that forecast its rapid decline in favor of temperate maple forests, the ecological history of the boreal ...
A new study reports that climate warming can increase soil carbon accumulation in boreal Sphagnum peatlands by boosting plant productivity, protecting iron, and inhibiting microbial decomposition.
A study finds that logging has inflicted severe damage to the vast boreal forests in Ontario and Quebec, two of the country’s main commercial logging regions. By Ian Austen and Vjosa Isai Ian Austen ...
