The state of Northwest Territories forests in the wake of climate change : baseline conditions and observed changes to forest ecosystems / Y. Huberman [and eighteen others].: Fo133-1/430E-PDF
"The climate in Canada's north has changed over the past 70 years. Indeed, mean annual temperature in the Northwest Territories has increased by 2°C to 4°C since record keeping began in 1950. Annual precipitation amounts and patterns have also changed during this period. These and other changes have already noticeably affected the appearance and function of northern forested ecosystems and will continue to do so into the future. As such, the Government of Northwest Territories and the Canadian Forest Service have collaborated to produce this baseline report summarizing the current ecological conditions of forested ecosystems in the Northwest Territories and identifying gaps in our understanding of northern forests and ecosystem processes"--Abstract, page iii.
