Climate, Caribou and Human Needs Linked by Analysis of Indigenous and Scientific Knowledge
Resource
Migratory tundra caribou are ecologically and culturally critical in the circumpolar North. However, they are declining almost everywhere in North America, probably due to natural variation...
Climate Change Alone Cannot Explain Boreal Caribou Range Recession in Quebec Since 1850
Resource
Abstract The contraction of species range is one of the most significant symptoms of biodiversity loss worldwide. While anthropogenic activities and habitat alteration are major threats for several...
Climate Change and Canada's Forests: From Impacts to Adaptation
Resource
Climate change is already affecting Canada’s forests. Current visible effects include changes in the frequency and severity of disturbances (such as fires, drought, severe storms, and damaging insect...
Climate Change and the Bioeconomy: Finding Silviculture Solutions for 21st Century Forests
Resource
This fibre fact provides an overview of how salvage logging can provide an opportuntiy for the forest industry to supply Canada's bioeconomy with wood fibre as well as regenerate a forest.
Climate Change is the Primary Driver of White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus) Range Expansion at the Northern Extent of its Range; Land Use is Secondary
Resource
Quantifying the relative influence of multiple mechanisms driving recent range expansion of non-native species is essential for predicting future changes and for informing adaptation and management...
Climate Change Reduces Reproductive Success of an Arctic Herbivore Through Trophic Mismatch
Resource
Effective ecological monitoring is central to the sustainability of subsistence resources of indigenous communities. For caribou, Arctic indigenous people's most important terrestrial subsistence...
Climate Change: Response of Black Spruce
Resource
Climate change is an undeniable reality, and the boreal forest's response to accelerated global warming will surely have a major impact on forest ecosystems. The effect that higher concentrations of...
Climate Change Vulnerability of Alberta Species
Resource
Vulnerability to climate change of more than 170 of Alberta’s native species is assessed on the basis of exposure and sensitivity to change
Climate Change Vulnerability of Alberta’s Terrestrial Biodiversity: A Preliminary Assessment
Resource
This report provides a broad overview of how Alberta species are likely to be affected by climate change by the 2050s. Amphibians were consistently found to be the most vulnerable to climate change
Climate Change Will Affect the Ability of Forest Management to Reduce Gaps Between Current and Presettlement Forest Composition in Southeastern Canada
Resource
Context Forest landscapes at the boreal–temperate ecotone have been extensively altered. Reducing the gap between current and presettlement forest conditions through ecosystem-based forest management...
Climate, Land Cover and Topography: Essential Ingredients in Predicting Wetland Permanence
Resource
Wetlands in the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) are forecast to retract in their ranges due to climate change, and potholes that typically contain ponded water year-round, which support a larger...
Climate Warming and Elevated CO2 Alter Peatland Soil Carbon Sources and Stability
Resource
Peatlands are an important carbon (C) reservoir storing one-third of global soil organic carbon (SOC), but little is known about the fate of these C stocks under climate change. Here, we examine the...
Climate-induced Hydrological Fluctuations Shape Arctic Alaskan Peatland Plant Communities
Resource
Rapidly increasing temperatures in high-latitude regions are causing major changes in wetland ecosystems. To assess the impact of concomitant hydroclimatic fluctuations, mineral deposition, and...
Climate-informed Forecasts Reveal Dramatic Local Habitat Shifts and Population Uncertainty for Northern Boreal Caribou
Resource
Most research on boreal populations of Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) has been conducted in areas of high anthropogenic disturbance. However, a large portion of the species’ range...
Climatological Analysis of Recent Data from the Athabasca Oil Sands Area
Resource
Climatological analysis of recent data from the MAPS network of automatic meteorological data acquisition, forestry lookout stations, minisondes, pack surveys, and the Fort McMurray station
