Caribou Encounters with Wolves Increase Near Roads and Trails: A Time-to-Event Approach
Resource
1. Caribou and reindeer Rangifer tarandus are declining across North America and Scandinavia in part from wolf Canis lupus-mediated apparent competition with more abundant ungulate prey species. While...
Caribou Health Guide
Resource
This guide was collaboratively developed to help communities in Northwest territories assess the health of barren ground caribou using non-invasive methods. Focusing on body condition and behaviour...
Caribou Mortality and Disease Prevalence in West-central Alberta
Resource
Woodland caribou are in decline across their range and although the proximate cause of decline is unsustainable rates of predation, health is increasingly recognised as a factor that may contribute to...
Characterization of Organic Constituents in Waters and Wastewaters of the Athabasca Oil Sands Mining Area
Resource
Organic constituents of wastewaters discharged from the GCOS plant and Syncrude Canada Ltd. lease No. 17 were characterized and compared to those occurring naturally in the Athabasca River
Climate Change Vulnerability of Alberta Species
Resource
Vulnerability to climate change of more than 170 of Alberta’s native species is assessed on the basis of exposure and sensitivity to change
Climate Change Vulnerability of Alberta’s Terrestrial Biodiversity: A Preliminary Assessment
Resource
This report provides a broad overview of how Alberta species are likely to be affected by climate change by the 2050s. Amphibians were consistently found to be the most vulnerable to climate change
Collaborative Landscape Data to Support Woodland Caribou Recovery Planning in Northwestern Alberta
Resource
We collected high-resolution aerial imagery and associated ground-truthed data from four sampling blocks in two caribou ranges to assess human footprint accuracy and state of vegetation recovery.
Collaborative research and monitoring of migratory Eastern Cape Chruchill caribou
Project
Organization:
The Cape Churchill caribou herd, part of the Eastern Migratory caribou population, resides along the western coast of Hudson Bay and has been largely unstudied. However, they are locally important to...
Columbia Mountains Caribou Research Project
Project
Contact
Organization:
Project Description: Beginning in 2003, moose populations were intentionally reduced by increased hunting pressure as an indirect way of reducing wolf numbers — fewer moose on the landscape means...
Comparing Deep Learning and Shallow Learning for Large-Scale Wetland Classification in Alberta, Canada
Resource
Developed two wetland inventory style products for a large (397,958 km2) area in the Boreal Forest region of Alberta, Canada, using Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, and ALOS DEM data
Comparison of Sampling Techniques to Monitor Stream Amphibian Communities in Forested Regions of Alberta
Resource
Objective was to compare the effectiveness of four commonly used sampling techniques (pitfall traps, funnel traps, visual searches and call surveys) to detect stream amphibian communities.
Conserving Alberta’s Biodiversity Under Climate Change: A Review and Analysis of Adaptation Measures
Resource
Although ecological transitions are expected to be widespread, under even the least-change climate scenario, ecological change is not synonymous with the loss of biodiversity.
Controls on Plot-Scale Growing Season CO2 and CH4 Fluxes in Restored Peatlands: Do They Differ From Unrestored and Natural Sites?
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...
Corridors or Risk? Movement Along, and Use of, Linear Features Vary Predictably Among Large Mammal Predator and Prey Species
Resource
The objective of this study is to evaluate wolf, black bear, moose and caribou responses to anthropogenic linear features, attempting to determine whether these features are perceived as movement...
Creating a Detailed Wetland Inventory with Sentinel-2 Time-Series Data and Google Earth Engine in the Prairie Pothole Region of Canada
Resource
Wetlands in the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) of Canada and the United States represent a unique mapping challenge. They are dynamic both seasonally and year-to-year, are very small, and frequently...
Critical Remote Sensing Targets for Boreal Wetlands Research and Management
Resource
This presentation discusses remote sensing to assess groundwater, microtopogpraphy and above-ground biomass, as well as wetland management. Presented at the NAIT 7th Seminar on Linear Disturbance...
