Linking Habitat, Predators and Alternative Prey to Explain Recruitment Variations of an Endangered Caribou Population
Resource
Habitat loss, fragmentation and alteration are frequently identified as important threats to biodiversity, inducing major changes in the structure and composition of species communities and the...
Linking Woodland Caribou Abundance to Forestry Disturbance in Southern British Columbia, Canada
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...
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...
Lowering the Rate of Timber Harvesting to Mitigate Impacts of Climate Change on Boreal Caribou Habitat Quality in Eastern Canada
Resource
This study evaluates how climate change will affect boreal caribou habitat over the 2030–2100 horizon and in a 9.94 Mha study area, using a climate-sensitive simulation ensemble that integrates...
Management-mediated Predation Rate in the Caribou–Moose–Wolf System: Spatial Configuration of Logging Activities Matters
Resource
Landscape complexity can determine the population dynamics of interacting predators and prey. Yet, management plans are commonly developed from aspatial predictive models. This oversight may result in...
Meeting Caribou in the Alpine: Do Moose Compete with Caribou for Food?
Resource
The Atlantic-Gaspesie caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) is an endangered, isolated population that has been declining for decades in response to intensive logging. Timber harvesting has led to a...
Merging Indigenous and Scientific Knowledge Links Climate with the Growth of a Large Migratory Caribou Population
Resource
Climate change in the Arctic is two to three times faster than anywhere else in the world. It is therefore crucial to understand the effects of weather on keystone arctic species, particularly those...
Migratory Waterfowl and the Syncrude Tar Sands Lease: A Report
Resource
Objectives of the waterfowl surveys are: 1) To monitor waterfowl migrations through the Syncrude Lease 17 and general area during all seasons of use. 2) To establish the locations and intensity of use
Monitoring Air Quality with Lichen: A Feasibility Study
Resource
Study to determine the scientific, technical and economic feasibility of establishing air pollution effect gradients using lichenological methods on a radially arranged pattern of observation sites
Natal Habitat Preference Induction in Large Mammals—Like Mother, Like Child?
Project
Organization:
Project Description:We used complementary approaches to assess natal habitat preference induction in a marked population of woodland caribou. All approaches compared the behavior of calves in their...
Natal Habitat Preference Induction in Large Mammals—Like Mother, Like Child?
Resource
...three complementary approaches to assess NHPI in a marked population: (a) population‐based resource selection functions (RSFs), (b) individual‐based RSFs, and (c) behavioral repeatability analyses.
New Soil Relocation Rules Now in Effect for British Columbia
News
Organization
The British Columbia Ministry of Environment and Climate Change Strategy has released new regulations for soil relocation in B.C. effective March 1, 2023. The provincial soil relocation process has...
Observations on the Dispersal of Saline Groundwater in the Beaver Creek Diversion System, 1976-1978
Resource
Emphasis is placed on processes influencing temporal and spatial patterns in circulation, stratification and saline water distributions. Owing to its density, the high salinity effluent tends to sink
Oil Sands Clay Fines: Can they be Reclaimed as Productive, Self-Sustaining Wetlands?
Resource
The Clark hot water process currently used for extracting bitumen from the Athabasca oil sands results in large volumes of clay fines containing small amounts of residual bitumen. One possible way of...
Operational Restoration Framework - Woodland Caribou Habitat Restoration in British Columbia
Resource
Habitat restoration is an integral component in British Columbia’s approach to woodland caribou recovery. The goal is to restore large tracts of the woodland caribou’s habitat and to limit human and...
Optimal Restoration of Wildlife Habitat in Landscapes Fragmented by Resource Extraction: A Network Flow Modeling Approach
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...
Ornithological Studies on and near Crown Lease 17, Northeastern Alberta, June-October 1984
Resource
Overall objectives of this study were to determine the abundance and diversity of terrestrial breeding birds and conduct waterbird inventories to determine what changes, if any, have occurred
Overcoming Challenges of Sparse Telemetry Data to Estimate Caribou Movement
Resource
Sparse data sets, such as VHF collar locations, can be used to fit movement models whose parameters could not be estimated directly from the data.
