Sensitivity of boreal forest carbon balance to soil thaw
- Science
, 1998
"... We used eddy covariance; gas-exchange chambers; radiocarbon analysis; wood, moss, and soil inventories; and laboratory incubations to measure the carbon balance of a 120-year-old black spruce forest in Manitoba, Canada. The site lost 0.3 6 0.5 metric ton of carbon per hectare per year (ton C ha21 ye ..."

Extreme melt on Canada’s Arctic ice caps in the 21st century
"... Earth’s glacier and ice cap area. Snow accumulation on these glaciers is low and varies little from year to year. Changes in their surface mass balance are driven largely by changes in summer air temperatures, surface melting and runoff. Relative to 2000–2004, strong summer warming since 2005 (1.1 t ..."

Diabetes Care in the U.S. and Canada
"... OBJECTIVE — To compare the glycemic control of patients with type 1 diabetes treated in the U.S. and Canada. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS — A large multicenter randomized clinical trial conducted in the U.S. and Canada was analyzed. Patients with type 1 diabetes, screened from 1983 to 1989 for enroll ..."
