Hey @HydroOne ,after you put an extra anchor cable in on our property last year, we now have wild parsnip. Please consider cleaning equipment between jobs to reduce the spread of #invasivespecies. Now we have to remove these. #notcool
We had the opportunity to visit the Turkey Lakes Watershed, with an excellent tour by @WET_Erik and others. Learned so much, and more than ever realized the value of long-term research sites like these.

New study reveals that lichens - a crucial food for #caribou - are less abundant up to 25 m away from the edge of seismic lines on boreal peatlands - meaning the ecological impact of the lines is greater than their footprint alone: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… 📸Anna Dabros
ALT Seismic line on a boreal peatland near Peace River, Alberta. A large open corridor with scrubby, low-growing vegetation (mosses and short trees). Taller spindly spruce trees surround either side of the line. Sunny, bright conditions with fluffy white clouds in a blue sky. Photo is taken from the perspective of someone standing on the middle of the line.
Nothing says team building like a little 5 pin bowling! After a productive day of strategic planning on our wildland fire program, we enjoyed some friendly competition on the lanes.
Thankfully, we are better at wildland fire than we are at bowling!

Story time 🧵: back in the Agreement Forest era of Ontario (1920s-70s mostly) counties received funding to buy land that was “better suited for forestry purposes”. Many of these lands had failed agricultural areas from European settlement, some with eroding soils. /1
