Genetic Influences on Male and Female Variance in Reproductive Success and Implications for the Recovery of Severely Endangered Mountain Caribou
Resource
Assessment of three endangered caribou subpopulations using non-invasive genetic sampling to assess demographic population changes.
Genomic Population Structure and Inbreeding History of Lake Superior Caribou
Resource
Abstract Caribou ( Rangifer tarandus) have experienced dramatic declines in both range and population size across Canada over the past century. Boreal caribou ( R. t. caribou), 1 of the 12...
Genomic research at Trent University identifies distinct caribou ecotypes
News
Funding from Ontario’s Species at Risk Stewardship Program has allowed researchers to investigate the genomic fingerprints of Boreal, Eastern Migratory, and Lake Superior caribou. Analysis of genetic...
Graminoids Vary in Functional Traits, Carbon Dioxide and Methane Fluxes in a Restored Peatland: Implications for Modeling Carbon Storage
Resource
One metric of peatland restoration success is the re-establishment of a carbon sink, yet considerable uncertainty remains around the timescale of carbon sink trajectories. Conditions post-restoration...
Grants approved for 14 caribou habitat restoration projects
News
Supported by funding from the B.C. government and the federal government, the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation approved 14 grants for new and ongoing projects to help restore caribou habitat in...
Great Lakes Coastal Wetlands Webinar Series 2022
Event
Event Date and Time
April 4th, 2022 at 1:00pm EST to April 8th, 2022 at 2:00pm EST
Dear Great Lakes community: You're invited to attend this week-long, five-part webinar series focused on assessing and enhancing the resilience of Great Lakes coastal wetlands. The series is being...
Groundwater in Peat and Peatlands
Resource
Peatlands are wetlands with soil comprised of undecomposed remains of plants that accumulate in such a way that both responds to and controls the flux and storage of surface water and groundwater, as...
Guilbeault calls for decree to protect caribou in Quebec
News
Federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbault will recommend that his government put in place a decree to better protect caribou in Quebec. In a letter sent to his provincial counterpart Benoit...
Guilbeault goes to battle with another province. This time Quebec, and it's over caribou
News
Organization
The caribou may be a national symbol, but in Quebec it has become another sticking point between the province and the feds. Full text of this article can be accessed here: A Woodland Caribou decree...
Habitat Loss Accelerates for the Endangered Woodland Caribou in Western Canada
Resource
Habitat loss is often the ultimate cause of species endangerment and is also a leading factor inhibiting species recovery. For this reason, species-at-risk legislation, policies and plans typically...
Habitat Relationships and Management of Terrestrial Birds in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Breeding bird studies using the mapping method were combined with intensive habitat quantification to determine the relative values to breeding avifauna of 21 habitat types
Habitat Selection and Population Trends of the Torngat Mountains Caribou Herd
Project
Organization:
Project Description:We fitted 9 Argos and 26 global positioning system (GPS)-collars on 35 adult caribou (25 female, 10 male) from the declining Torngat Mountains caribou herd in northern Quebec...
Habitat Selection and Population Trends of the Torngat Mountains Caribou Herd
Resource
We fitted collars on 35 adult caribou to assess seasonal habitat selection at 2 spatial scales, current and future population trends, and interactions with the neighboring migratory caribou herd.
Heavy Metal Dynamics in the Athabasca River: Sediment Concentrations Prior to Major Alberta Oil Sands Development
Resource
To document the natural heavy metal geochemistry of the sediment and to assess cultural influences if any on concentrations. Absolute concentrations are low compared to data for polluted sediments
Heavy Metals in Bottom Sediments of the Mainstem Athabasca River System in the AOSERP Study Area
Resource
Dredged sediments and sediment cores were collected from sites along the Athabasca River system from between Fort McMurray and the confluence of Riviere des Rochers with the Slave River
High Genetic Load Without Purging in Caribou, a Diverse Species at Risk
Resource
High intra-specific genetic diversity is associated with adaptive potential, which is key for resilience to global change. However, high variation may also support deleterious alleles through genetic...
