🚩Potential for another fire weather/fire episode in Canada Starting next Tue-Wed (Jul 29-30) in AB then shifting to SK – MB – NWRN ON (Wed – Sat Aug 2). This is concerning as 2025 is very active fire season with 280 Out of Control fires - many in the regions mentioned. 500mb anomaly forecast below.

Peat Depth and Carbon Storage of the Hudson Bay Lowlands, Canada
We use stacking, an ensemble learning technique designed to mitigate overfitting, to estimate peat depth in the Hudson Bay Lowlands (HBL) The average peat depth of HBL is 184 (±48) cm with 90% of...
