Saving Endangered Species Using Adaptive Management
Resource
Adaptive management is a powerful means of learning about complex ecosystems, but is rarely used for recovering endangered species. Here, we demonstrate how it can benefit woodland caribou, which...
Science-informed Policy Decisions Lead to the Creation of a Protected Area for a Wide-ranging Species at Risk
Resource
Protected areas are needed to conserve nature and biodiversity worldwide. The province of Québec (Canada) recently established a large wilderness area affording significant habitat protection for...
Semi-aquatic Mammals: Annotated Bibliography

Service Delivery in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region Since 1961
Resource
Population growth in Fort McMurray (from 1200 people to 25,000) necessitated the institution and continuous expansion of a service delivery system, including urban infrastructure and social services
Should Climate Change be Taken into Account in Reclamation Planning?
Resource
If you are planning or undertaking revegetation using long-lived species such as trees then you should be giving some consideration to the environment they may experience in the future
Shrub Changes with Proximity to Anthropogenic Disturbance in Boreal Wetlands Determined Using Bi-temporal Airborne LiDAR in the Oil Sands Region, Alberta Canada
Resource
Bi-temporal LiDAR data used to identify correspondence between density of anthropogenic disturbances, wetland shape complexity and changes in vegetation height within >1800 wetlands near Fort McKay
Significant Progress Made in Discussions Between Canada and Quebec on the Management, Protection and Recovery of Boreal and Gaspésie Caribou
News
The governments of Canada and Quebec are reporting significant progress in discussions surrounding the management, protection and recovery of boreal caribou. With financial support from the federal...
