    “Permafrost soils are particularly vulnerable to climate change. To assess and improve estimations of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) budgets it is necessary to accurately map soil carbon and nitrogen in the permafrost region. In particular, soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks have been predicted and mapped by many studies from local to pan-Arctic scales. Several studies have been carried out at the Canadian Beaufort Sea coast, though no regional maps of terrestrial carbon stocks based on spatial modelling has been conducted yet. This study combines available field data from the Canadian Yukon coastal plain and uses it to map regional SOC and N stocks using the machine learning algorithm random forest and environmental variables based on remote sensing data. [The authors] developed models using the data for the entire region and separate models for the coastal mainland area and Qikiqtaruk Herschel Island. Each model was used to map SOC and N stocks for its respective area. [They] assessed the performance of the different random forest models by using crossvalidation. [They] further assessed model results using the Area of Applicability (AOA) method and the quantile regression forest approach, comparing the results and discussing their implications within the context of both methods. [They] explore[d] local differences in soil properties and how soil data distribution across the region affects the accuracy of the predictions of SOC and N stocks..."

  4. Meet "Grizzly Bear Spring March."

    I found this grizzly trucking along the Alaska Highway, searching for the first green shoots of spring.

    The muted landscape brings the animal's quiet power and steady stride into focus, a small, wild reminder beyond our everyday paths.

  5. THREE JOURNEYS NORTH TO THE ARCTIC SEA:
    Pierre Pambrun Jr. worked at Robert Campbell's Frances Lake post, and also at Pelly Banks. In 1850 or so, the Pelly Banks Post was consumed by a fire which destroyed all their provisions and warm clothes and also left them without ammunition in the middle of winter. It was a disaster in the making.... #Journeys #ThreeJourneysNorth #Yukon #NorthernBC nancymargueriteanderson.com/pi

  6. From Nature Canada on Bluesky:

    #Biodiversity is not something distant or abstract. It is a part of us, and we are a part of it. It provides the food we eat, the air we breathe, the #climate that sustains us, and the medicines we rely on every day.

  10. The #Yukon #Government is asking citizens to submit red tape issues. Good! There is an online form, but it is not easy to find:

    forms2.service.yukon.ca/ca/en/

    They ask you to "upload any documentation to support your feedback", but then they restrict that to ".png, .jpeg, .doc, .docx or .pdf" - and only a single file, max 10 MByte.

    Can't make that up.

  11. THREE JOURNEYS NORTH TO THE ARCTIC SEA:
    In 1839, the HBC men under Robert Campbell made their way up the Liard River to Frances Lake, in #NorthernBC, before moving on to build a new post at Pelly Banks, above the Pelly River in #Yukon Territory. #Journeys #ThreeJourneysNorth nancymargueriteanderson.com/li

  12. Hello #Haines Junction! The #Yukon #African #Music Festival is in town today. 5pm at the St. Elias centre. Tickets are just $10. Have #fun!

  13. @jfmezei Oh look they have finally published the fall/winter 2023 newsletter for the #Dempster# fibre line. I wrote to them on May 11 to ask about the status of the project as there hadn't been an update for over a year. No response, but they did publish another file.

    It says that think that can finish next year. Godspeed!

  14. Leading up the Coronation, I'll share various created images of King Charles III.

    In 2001, then-Prince Charles visited the Yukon for the very first time, spending one day in Whitehorse.

    Here he is, as a Klondike gold prospector circa-1898ish.
