about the presentation

our changing climate is creating challenges but also opportunities for food and fibre production systems. soils are the foundation for these systems and provide numerous ecosystem services that contribute to our well-being and the well-being of our environment. many of these services are linked to and controlled by soil organic matter stores, which holds the largest terrestrial pool of organic carbon on the earth. how we manage that pool has significant implications for concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere but also how our ecosystems respond to stressors, like a changing climate. the critical role that soils play is often overlooked but has been a recent focus of the canadian government’s senate committee on agriculture and forestry, who have an ongoing study on the state of soil health in canada. join me to explore my program’s ongoing work to improve land management outcomes for organic carbon stores and soil health, with a focus on northern soils.  

about the speaker

dr. amanda diochon is an associate professor in the department of geology and ses faculty-based research chair in biogeochemical cycling of c in northern soils. her research program focuses on the effects of disturbances on the cycling of soil organic matter in forested and agricultural systems, and the impact of these disturbances on soil health. amanda is the past-president of the canadian society of soil science and co-chair of the soil education committee of the csss. she was also an editor on digging into canadian soils, the first open source canadian soil textbook.

about the event

this session will explore indigenous land based methodologies as an evidence-based approach to planning, programming, policy making and advocacy for the health of lands, waters and peoples and the roles and responsibilities of universities in regards to this work.

speakers

moderator: lana ray, phd is an anishinaabe scholar from opwaaganasiniing (red rock indian band). she is a member of the muskellunge clan and an associate professor at 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 and lakehead university’s inaugural indigenous research chair in decolonial futures.

speaker: tom morriseau borg is a knowledge keeper from red rock indian band. he possesses extensive knowledge about his traditional territories as a trapper and general land-based practitioner. he is a member of ontario certified engineering technicians and technologist, and previously was the environmental monitoring for his first nation. he has advised on archeological digs and hydro transmission line sites and he has represented red rock indian band on the water management committee, the lake nipigon advisory committee and has been a member of local citizens committee for forestry planning and issues for over two decades among other things.

speaker: dr. stéphane mclachlan, professor, clayton h riddell faculty of environment, earth, and resources. steph’s work with 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 and colleagues through the environmental conservation lab at the university of manitoba focuses on environmental justice and health, traditional foods, environmental monitoring, and indigenous data and research sovereignty. it is all partnership-based and bridges indigenous science with the natural and social sciences. this indigenous-led work documents and challenges the disproportionate impacts of hydropower, mining, and other intensive resource extraction on these communities. yet, it is also solutions-oriented and advocacy-based. in amplifying local voices and concerns with decision-makers and the public, it acts to increase public awareness and facilitate political change regarding these issues.

the bryophyte workshop is a student-led annual gathering of nature enthusiasts, 世界杯2022赛程表淘汰赛 , and faculty members interested in learning more about these amazing little plants called bryophytes. it includes research presentations and practical exercises, and everyone is welcome to take part.

bryophytes are a large group of simple plant forms that never flower and do not have a specialized vascular system like trees, grasses, or shrubs. instead, they have simpler ways to transport nutrients and water in their tissues and reproduce either by spores or by fragmentation. because they do not have tough “veins” in their bodies they cannot grow tall and instead they cover the ground in low-lying patches or more continuous layers. while their appearance may be humble and often we unwittingly step on them during our nature walks, these plants are true champions of nature, with an incredible ability to transform our environment and climate. for instance, sphagnum mosses cover large swaths of land in canada’s boreal and subarctic regions where they remove enormous quantities of carbon dioxide from the air – a powerful greenhouse gas.

in the broadest sense, bryophytes comprise three categories of plants: true mosses, liverworts, and hornworts each with their unique biological make-up.

in canada and across the world, nearly 40% of young people say they are hesitant to have children because of the climate crisis. in the climate baby dilemma researcher and science communicator britt wray explores diverse perspectives on reproductive decision making in a climate altered world. following the film, 阿根廷vs墨西哥竞猜 researchers will speak about their work investigating the emotional dimensions of climate change and climate justice, including reproductive decision making.

panelists:

• dr. helle møller, associate professor, department of health sciences
• dr. ellen field, assistant professor, faculty of education
• sidney howlett, master of education student
