Health Survey of Boreal Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Northeastern British Columbia, Canada
Resource
Boreal woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) are listed as threatened across Canada, and a basic understanding of their health status is lacking. From December 2012 to April 2013, we...
High Prevalence of Prion Protein Genotype Associated with Resistance to Chronic Wasting Disease in One Alberta Woodland Caribou Population
Resource
Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a prion disease found in deer, elk and moose in North America and since recently, wild reindeer in Norway. Caribou are at-risk to encounter CWD in areas such as...
Improving Soil Tilth in Reclaimed Soils at the Highvale Mine
Resource
The Highvale mine, located 65 km west of Edmonton along the south side of Lake Wabamum, produces approximately 12 m1llion tons of coal per year as fuel for the Sundance and Keephills generating plants...
In-situ Recovery Process Fluids
Resource
Heavy oils produced from the Alberta oil sands contain cyclic organic compounds together with sulphur and nitrogen. Upon thermal treatment they have potential to form carcinogenic, mutagenic, and toxi
Invasion, Establishment, and Range Expansion of Two Parasitic Nematodes in the Canadian Arctic
Resource
Climate warming is occurring at an unprecedented rate in the Arctic and is having profound effects on host-parasite interactions, including range expansion. Recently, two species of protostrongylid...
Large-scale Prion Protein Genotyping in Canadian Caribou Populations and Potential Impact on Chronic Wasting Disease Susceptibility
Resource
Here, we report the prevalence and distribution of R. tarandus prion protein polymorphisms obtained from 986 caribou samples from BC, Yukon, NT, Nunavut and Saskatchewan
Large-scale Probabilistic Identification of Boreal Peatlands Using Google Earth Engine, Open-access Satellite Data, and Machine Learning
Resource
The resulting peatland occurrence model shows an accuracy of 87% compared to our validation data set. Differentiating peatlands from mineral wetlands achieved an accuracy of 69%.
Linear Features, Forestry and Wolf Predation of Caribou and Other Prey in West Central Alberta
Resource
The primary goal of this research was to determine how human activities affect caribou population dynamics through modification of predator‐prey relationships. This knowledge can then be used to...
Linking Co-monitoring to Co-management: Bringing Together Local, Traditional, and Scientific Knowledge in a Wildlife Status Assessment Framework
Resource
Effective wildlife management requires accurate and timely information on conservation status and trends, and knowledge of the factors driving population change. Reliable monitoring of wildlife...
Links Between Individual Performance, Trace Elements and Stable Isotopes in an Endangered Caribou Population
Resource
Foraging is a key behaviour, and several aspects of foraging remain to be investigated in many wild species. Low energy gain or reduced protein, nutrient, and mineral intake may explain poor...
