The Impact of Climate Change on the Flowering and Fruiting Phenology of Arctic Plants in Nunavut, Canada The impact of climate change on the flowering and fruiting phenology of Arctic plants in Nunavut, Canada by Zoe Panchen A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biology Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario 2016 Zoe Panchen Abstract Phenology is the timing of nature’s seasonal events. Ambient temperature plays a key role in phenology and hence, as the climate warms, phenology will likely change. This thesis studied the impact of Arctic climate change on Arctic plant flowering and fruiting phenology in Nunavut, Canada. To establish a baseline for current plant phenology, the first question asked was ‘How does flowering phenology vary across Nunavut?’. Contrary to what might be expected, plants at a more northerly location flower earlier or at the same time and for a shorter duration than conspecifics at a more southerly location. Observations of vast differences in flower abundance in three consecutive and climatically-contrasting years highlighted the challenges of reproductive success with weather extremes associated with contemporary climate change given that Arctic plants require three plus years to complete the sexual reproductive cycle. Finally, three methods, employing long-term phenology monitoring, historical phenological records and an elevation gradient, combined with temperature records, were used to ask the questions: ‘How have temperatures in Nunavut changed?’, ‘How have Nunavut Arctic flowering and fruiting times responded to climate change?’ and ‘What is the predicted temperature- sensitivity of Arctic plants to rising temperatures of climate change?’. Annual temperatures in Nunavut are rising faster than the global average. However, in contrast to temperate regions where spring temperatures are rising the most, monthly temperatures in late summer, autumn and winter are rising significantly in Nunavut. Later-flowering species have advanced flowering times more than early-flowering species and seed dispersal times have advanced more than flowering times. Flowering time temperature- sensitivity is species specific and Nunavut region specific with mid-summer-flowering ii species more sensitive than early- and late-flowering species and Nunavut Arctic archipelago plants more sensitive than Nunavut mainland conspecifics. That Arctic plants’ reproductive phenological events are temperature-sensitive is a good news story suggesting that they will respond to climate change and possibly experience greater reproductive success. Interspecific and inter-regional variation in phenological temperature-sensitivity suggests Arctic plant ecological community structure will alter with climate change but differentially across Nunavut. iii Preface This thesis contains five data chapters. Chapters 2, 3 and 4 are published and Chapters 5 and 6 are in review at refereed journals. I am the sole author of Chapters 3 and 6, while Chapters 2, 4 and 5 were co-authored with my thesis advisor, Dr. Root Gorelick. For all five data chapters I conceived the ideas, designed the studies, collected the data, ran the analysis and wrote the manuscripts. Dr. Root Gorelick provided guidance in his advisory role and editorial suggestions for the manuscripts. All published chapters are included in their entirety in this thesis with minor modification to correct grammar and typos, and provide minor clarifications requested by the thesis examining committee.

I would also like to thank my thesis committee members, Dr. Christopher Burn and Dr. Lynn Gillespie, for their sage advice; their extensive Arctic expertise was valuable in building my knowledge on Arctic climate and Arctic plants and preparing me for my field seasons. I thank Dr. David Inouye and Dr. Brett Stevens for their roles as external examiners of my thesis and for their thoughtful questions during the defense. I feel fortunate and privileged to have had the opportunity to visit and work in Nunavut and I thank the Hamlets and Hunter and Trapper Organisations of Grise Fiord, Iqaluit and Resolute for supporting my research on Inuit land. Over my three years of Arctic field work, my field assistants, Sophia Jain- Schlaepfer, Orla Osborne, Emma Micalizzi, Joan Makaroff, Teresa Tufts and Carly Casey did a stellar job of assisting me with data collection, enduring sometimes less than ideal weather and bugs, and counting more flowers than they would care to remember. At Carleton University I received support and advice from many faculty and peers and I’d like to particularly thank Andrew Simons, Derek Mueller, Joe Bennet, Richard Webster, Tom Hossie, Dani Fraser, Lindsey Derraugh and Felipe Dargent. Outside of the University I received advice and help from Bea Alt, Jennifer Doubt at the Canadian Museum of Nature, Jason Carpenter at Nunavut’s Arctic College, Paul Smith at NWRC, Kyra St. Pierre at the University of Calgary and staff at the National Herbarium of Canada (CAN), Agriculture Canada Vascular Plant Herbarium (DAO), Herbier Louis- Marie (QFA) and University of Toronto at Mississauga Herbarium (TRTE). Some of vi those listed above and the Primack lab, Jeff Saarela, Paul Sokoloff, Johann Wagner and several anonymous reviewers took the time to review some of my manuscripts and I thank them for improving the manuscripts and helping me become a better writer. I received funding from many sources without which, I would not have been able to conduct field work in one of the remotest regions of the Arctic. I would like to thank the following for their financial support: Scholarships: Arctic Institute of North America (Jennifer Robinson Memorial Scholarship); Canadian Federation of University Women (Beverley Jackson Fellowship); Carleton University; Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC); and Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS) Program. Grants and travel bursaries: Carleton University; Northern Scientific Training Program (NSTP); and Polar Continental Shelf Program (PCSP). In kind support: Parks Canada’s Nunavut Field Unit. This research was conducted under Nunavut Department of Environment Wildlife Research Permits WL 2013-039 and WL 2014-021; Nunavut Territorial Parks Park Use Permits 2013-01 PU and 2014-02 PU; and Parks Canada Research and Collections Permits QUT 2013-13959 and QUT-2014-16198.

  • Rare Vascular Plant Surveys in the Polletts Cove and Lahave River Areas of Nova Scotia
    Rare Vascular Plant Surveys in the Polletts Cove and LaHave River areas of Nova Scotia David Mazerolle, Sean Blaney and Alain Belliveau Atlantic Canada Conservation Data Centre November 2014 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project was funded by the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources, through their Species at Risk Conservation Fund. The Atlantic Canada Conservation Data Centre appreciates the opportunity provided by the fund to have visited these botanically significant areas. We also thank Sean Basquill for mapping, fieldwork and good company on our Polletts Cove trip, and Cape Breton Highlands National Park for assistance with vehicle transportation at the start of that trip. PHOTOGRAPHY CREDITS All photographs included in this report were taken by the authors. 1 INTRODUCTION This project, funded by the Nova Scotia Species at Risk Conservation Fund, focused on two areas of high potential for rare plant occurrence: 1) the Polletts Cove and Blair River system in northern Cape Breton, covered over eight AC CDC botanist field days; and 2) the lower, non-tidal 29 km and selected tidal portions of the LaHave River in Lunenburg County, covered over 12 AC CDC botanist field days. The Cape Breton Highlands support a diverse array of provincially rare plants, many with Arctic or western affinity, on cliffs, river shores, and mature deciduous forests in the deep ravines (especially those with more calcareous bedrock and/or soil) and on the peatlands and barrens of the highland plateau. Recent AC CDC fieldwork on Lockhart Brook, Big Southwest Brook and the North Aspy River sites similar to the Polletts Cove and Blair River valley was very successful, documenting 477 records of 52 provincially rare plant species in only five days of fieldwork.

  • Swing Through
    Swing Through 20m Swing Through is an interactive agility garden that connects the user to Canada’s diverse landscape, as well as its major economic industry. The garden is a series of thirteen finished lumber posts that dangle from a large steel structure, creating “tree swings”. On the swings are climbing holds where visitors can use the holds to climb up and across the tree swings. Directly under the tree swings are thirteen colour-coordinated stumps that give the user an extra boost, if needed. The thirteen timber tree swings represent Canada’s ten provinces and three territories by using wood from the official provincial and territorial trees. Surrounding this structure of Canadian trees is a garden divided into thirteen sections displaying the native plants of each province and territory. This representative regional plantings encompassing the swings, creating a soft edge. 10m Swing Through allows visitors to touch, smell, and play with the various YT NT NU BC AB SK MB ON QC NL NB PE NS natural elements that make our country so green, prosperous and beautiful.

  • Mycology in the Canadian Arctic
    MYCOLOGY INTHE CANADIAN ARCTIC* D. B. 0. Savile Introduction and history TUDENTS of arctic fungi have traditionally relied largely on the practice S of gleaning inconspicuous saprophytes from the old stems and leaves of vascular plant specimens brought back by botanists or others. Except for a few conspicuous fleshy fungi, which were often unidentifiable because of inappropriate handling, most of these specimens have been collected unin- tentionally. This was the way in which Canadian arctic mycology started. First Rostrup (1906) scrutinized Simmons’s collections from Ellesmere Island made during the second voyage of the Fram. Later Lind (1910) published an account of fungi gleaned from the plantsof the GjZa expedition, collected at King Point on the Yukon coast and King William Island; and Dearness (1923) similarly treated the fungi taken on the Canadian Arctic Expedition at various points along the arctic coast. Lind (1934) added a numberof further Canadian records, arctic and sub- arctic, in his discussion of circumpolar microfungi. Linder (1947) made the next substantial contribution to our knowledgeof Canadian arctic fungi, but his treatment, although part of Polunin’s “Flora of the Canadian Eastern Arctic’’ was actually limited to those fungi collected by Polunin and did not bring together the available records. A conspicuous feature of almost all the early records from the Canadian Arctic is the extreme paucityof parasitic fungi. Dearness was impressed by the lack of such fungi and wrote “the smuts, like the rusts, seem to be rare in the Canadian arctic regions”. He recorded only one smut and three rusts from the collectioqsof the Canadian Arctic Expedition.

    Université de Montréal Inuit Ethnobotany in the North American Subarctic and Arctic: Celebrating a Rich History and Expanding Research into New Areas Using Biocultural Diversity par Christian H. Norton Département de sciences biologiques Faculté des arts et des sciences Mémoire présenté à la Faculté des études supérieures en vue de l’obtention du grade de maîtrise en sciences biologiques Novembre 2018 © Christian H. Norton 2018 2 Résumé Historiquement, l'utilisation des plantes par les Inuits était considérée comme minimale. Notre compréhension de l'utilisation des plantes par les Inuits a commencé par suite de la prise en compte de concepts tels que la diversité bioculturelle et les espèces clés, et ces nouvelles idées ont commencé à dissiper les mythes sur le manque d’importance des plantes dans la culture inuite. Les Inuits peuvent être regroupés en quatre régions en fonction de la langue: l'Alaska, l'Arctique ouest canadien, l'Arctique et la région subarctique est canadienne et le Groenland. Le chapitre 1 passera en revue la littérature sur l'utilisation des plantes inuites de l'Alaska au Groenland. Au total, 311 taxons ont été mentionnés dans les quatre régions, ce qui correspond à 73 familles. Les niveaux de diversité étaient similaires dans les quatre régions. Seuls 25 taxons et 16 familles étaient communs à toutes les régions, mais 50%-75% des taxons et 75%-90% familles étaient signalés dans au moins deux régions, et les régions voisines ont généralement un chevauchement plus élevé que les régions plus éloignées. De la même manière, les Inuits des quatre régions ont indiqué comestible, médecine, incendie et design comme principales catégories d'utilisation, ainsi qu'une différenciation commune claire en ce qui concerne les taxons utilisés à des fins spécifiques.
