Education Resources and Teacher Tools: Caribou for the Future
Resource
These undated resources are focused on the Beverly and Qamanirjuaq herds, but a lot of the information would be transferable to other migratory herds. There are three poster/fact sheet/video units...
Effect of Forest Understorey Stand Density on Woodland Caribou Habitat Use
Resource
Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) are considered to preferentially use older forests that provide abundant terrestrial lichen forage and refuge from predators. However, structural...
Effect of Forest Understory Stand Density on Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) Habitat Selection
Resource
Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou (Gmelin, 1788)) use older forests that provide abundant terrestrial lichen forage and refuge from predators. However, forest structural characteristics...
Effect of Grasses and Soil Amendments on Soil Aggregates and Aggregate Strength
Resource
Four solum and subsoil materials from Alberta were treated to determine if soil aggregation and aggregate strength could be increased to reduce succeptibility to soil compaction. Each soil was treated...
Effect of Pipeline Construction on Soil Compaction in Alberta
Resource
No clear relationships emerged between soil Orders, zones, or soil parent materials and the effect of pipeline construction on soil compaction. Soil moisture conditions appear to be more important.
Effect of Pipeline Construction on Soil Strengths of Soil Horizons in Alberta: 1990 Final Report
Resource
At each of the fifteen 1989 study areas and at each of the eight 1988 study areas soil strength was monitored using a cone penetrometer in 15 cm depth increments to a depth of 52.5 cm.
Effect of Plant Functional Type on Methane Dynamics in a Restored Minerotrophic Peatland
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Effect of Seed Production and Soil Scarification on the Natural Regeneration of a Second-Growth Fir Stand in the Lower St. Lawrence Region
Resource
This study examines the relationship between seed production, soil scarification and seedling establishment in balsam fir ( Abies balsamea [L.] Mill.) and white spruce ( Picea glauca [Moench] Voss)...
Effective Strategies for the Restoration of Disturbed Sites
Resource
Understanding the ecology of recovery processes allows effective restoration strategies for disturbed sites to be developed. Since pioneering species occur over broad ecological and geographic ranges...
Effectiveness of Population-Based Recovery Actions for Threatened Southern Mountain Caribou
Resource
Habitat loss is affecting many species, including the southern mountain caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) population in western North America. Over the last half century, this threatened caribou...
Effectiveness of Soil Conservation Procedures on Recent Major Pipeline Construction in Western Canada
Resource
The effectiveness of a soil conservation method employed on recent major pipeline construction in Western Canada was investigated. Prior to any major construction activities, topsoil was salvaged over...
Effects of 2023 Wildfires in Alberta
Resource
Fires are a natural occurrence in Alberta’s forests. In boreal and montane forests, fires—along with other natural disturbances such as insect outbreaks and disease—create a mosaic of stands of...
Effects of Agriculture and Climate Change on Prairie Wetlands
Resource
The Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI), InnoTech Alberta, and Ducks Unlimited Canada have partnered on a four-year project to better understand linkages between wetland health and...
Effects of Air Pollutants on the Forest Ecosystem: A Review
Resource
Alberta is in a fortunate situation because most of its soils are underlain by calcareous bedrock and can, therefore, neutralize in-coming acids more efficiently than Canadian Shield areas
Effects of Cell Size and Spacing on Root Density and Field Performance of Container-Reared Black Spruce
Resource
This study examined the effects of nursery rearing in an array of 51 individual fabricated frames that supported a range of six growing cell sizes at 11 plant spacings in all possible combinations. A...
Effects of Cold Stratification on the Germination of Vaccinium myrtilloides (Common Blueberry) and Vaccinium vitis-idaea (Bog Cranberry) Seeds from Alberta, Canada
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Effects of Disturbance on Understory Succession in Upland and Lowland Boreal Forests and Implications for Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou)
Resource
Boreal forest development is influenced by both natural and anthropogenic disturbances that alter stand structure and nutrient cycling over decadal timescales. The effects of disturbance on boreal...
