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-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...
CNVs with Adaptive Potential in Rangifer tarandus: Genome Architecture and New Annotated Assembly
Resource
Rangifer tarandus has experienced recent drastic population size reductions throughout its circumpolar distribution and preserving the species implies genetic diversity conservation. To facilitate...
Collection and Analysis of Traditional Ecological Knowledge About a Population of Arctic Tundra Caribou
Resource
Aboriginal peoples want their ecological knowledge used in the management of wildlife populations. To accomplish this, management agencies will need regional summaries of aboriginal knowledge about...
Compensatory Conservation Measures for an Endangered Caribou Population Under Climate Change
Resource
Future human land use and climate change may disrupt movement behaviors of terrestrial animals, thereby altering the ability of individuals to move across a landscape. Some of the expected changes...
Continental Synchrony and Local Responses: Climatic Effects on Spatiotemporal Patterns of Calving in a Social Ungulate
Resource
Warming temperatures and advancing spring are affecting annual snow and ice cycles, as well as plant phenology, across the Arctic and boreal regions. These changes may be linked to observed population...
Controls on Methylmercury Concentrations in Lakes and Streams of Peatland-Rich Catchments Along a 1700 km Permafrost Gradient
Resource
Permafrost thaw may increase the production of neurotoxic methylmercury (MeHg) in northern peatlands, but the downstream delivery of MeHg is uncertain. We quantified total mercury (THg) and MeHg...
Cross-Scale Controls on Carbon Emissions from Boreal Forest Megafires
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...
Decision-support Tools to Assess Cumulative Effects on the Cape Bathurst, Tuktoyaktuk Peninsula, Bluenose-West, and Bluenose-East Herds of Barren-ground Caribou – Project Summary Report
Resource
This report summarizes a project whose purpose was to collaboratively develop decision-support tools that will help northern decision-makers review, explore, and learn about the cumulative effects of...
Defining Parasite Biodiversity at High Latitudes of North America: New Host and Geographic Records for Onchocerca Cervipedis (Nematoda: Onchocercidae) in Moose and Caribou
Resource
Onchocerca cervipedis is a filarioid nematode of cervids reported from Central America to boreal regions of North America. It is found primarily in subcutaneous tissues of the legs, and is more...
Demographic and Behavioural Response of Woodland Caribou to Forest Harvesting
Resource

Demographic Responses of a Threatened, Low-density Ungulate to Annual Variation in Meteorological and Phenological Conditions
Resource
Study highlights the increased relevance of recovery actions when adverse climatic conditions are likely to negatively affect caribou demography.
Dene Traditional Knowledge about Caribou Cycles in the Northwest Territories
Resource
Abstract This paper is about what I have learned about the caribou cycle over the past one hundred and ten years or so, talking to Denesųłıné elders in Fort Resolution, Łutselk’e, and Yellowknife...
