\u2022 The Nashwaak Watershed Association’s (NWAI) conducted a community-based approach to leave room for the river and restore and conserve native floodplain forested wetlands in Fredericton, New Brunswick. This project aims to increase community resilience in a changing climate – by increasing landscape connectivity, mitigating local\u00a0overland flooding, providing critical habitat for native aquatic and terrestrial species, and connecting people with nature through provision of recreational green space that they are helping to restore and steward.

\u2022 The Moss Layer Transfer Technique, a peatlands restoration method has been developed by the Peatland Ecology Research Group of Universit\u00e9 Laval. This method has been used over the last 25 years for 100+ restoration projects across Canada, notably for different peatlands located in Eastern Qu\u00e9bec and the New Brunswick: natural peatland, rewetted peatlands, restored peatlands aged between 2 to 25 yrs, a restored sector that was burned and a Sphagnum farming site.

\u2022 \u00c9valuation de l\u2019effet de la microtopographie, de structures physiques (d\u00e9bris forestier, roche) et de l\u2019ajout de mati\u00e8re organique sur l\u2019\u00e9tablissement spontan\u00e9e des plantes indig\u00e8nes dans la for\u00eat bor\u00e9ale. Pour ce faire, nous avons adapt\u00e9 la m\u00e9thode du \u00ab Rough and Loose (R&L) \u00bb d\u00e9velopp\u00e9e par l\u2019\u00e9cologiste David Polster dont le but est d\u2019offrir une diversit\u00e9 de conditions et de microsites en cr\u00e9ant une microtopographie en monticules et en cuvettes et en ajoutant de la rugosit\u00e9 \u00e0 la surface du sol (d\u00e9bris organiques et inorganiques). L e but est aussi de valoriser le mat\u00e9riel disponible sur les sites (terre v\u00e9g\u00e9tale, BRF, d\u00e9bris forestier, roche). Par exemple, pour le site en Abitibi, nous avons utilis\u00e9 du mat\u00e9riel v\u00e9g\u00e9tal entrepos\u00e9 par le Minist\u00e8re des transports du Qu\u00e9bec t qui provient de nettoyage de foss\u00e9 & du BRF\/d\u00e9bris forestier de dimensions variables provenant de travaux de d\u00e9boisement.
