Examining the Role of Terrestrial Lichen Transplants in Restoring Woodland Caribou Winter Habitat
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...
Experimental Moose Reduction Lowers Wolf Density and Stops Decline of Endangered Caribou
Resource
Using an adaptive management experiment, we tested the hypothesis that reducing moose to historic levels would reduce apparent competition and therefor recover caribou populations.
Extreme Precipitation Reduces Reproductive Output of an Endangered Raptor
Resource
Frequency and intensity of extreme weather has increased against a backdrop of anthropogenic land change. Extreme rainfall during the breeding season reduced reproductive success of burrowing owls.
Fall Supplemental Feeding Increases Population Growth Rate of an Endangered Caribou Herd
Resource
Our results support the recommendation that multiple management actions should be implemented to improve recovery prospects for caribou.
Ferruginous Hawk Climate Change Adaptation Plan for Alberta
Resource
The Alberta Ferruginous Hawk Recovery Plan 2009 – 2014 identifies climate change as a factor potentially threatening the recovery of the species in Alberta.
Forest Ecosystem Monitoring in Saskatchewan and Alberta: Identification of Aquatic Elements and Sampling Protocols
Resource
This chapter describes aquatic elements and sampling protocols that could be used to monitor forested stream ecosystems in Alberta and Saskatchewan
Forest Landscape Restoration Legislation and Policy: A Canadian Perspective
Resource
Restoring degraded ecosystems is an urgent policy priority to regain ecological integrity, advance sustainable land use management, and mitigate climate change. This study examined current legislation...
Grey Wolves (Canis Lupus) Shift Selection of Anthropogenic Landscape Features Following Predator Control in the Nearctic Boreal Forest
Resource
Conserving endangered species sometimes involves killing their predators. In the case of Nearctic wolves (Canis lupus), rarely are lethal control measures examined for ancillary effects on predator...
Groundwater Monitoring Near Oil Sands Development: Insights From Regional Water Quality Datasets in the Alberta Oil Sands Region (AOSR)
Resource
Groundwater quality data for the AOSR are compiled and interpreted to provide information on regional water quality to inform groundwater monitoring and land use planning. A database of 546 water...
Groundwater Monitoring Near Oil Sands Development: Insights from Regional Water Quality Datasets in the Alberta Oil Sands Region (AOSR)
Resource
Groundwater quality data for the AOSR are compiled and interpreted to provide information on regional water quality to inform groundwater monitoring and land use planning. A database of 546 water...
Habitat Alteration or Climate: What Drives the Densities of an Invading Ungulate?
Resource
Anthropogenic habitat alteration and climate change are two well-known contributors to biodiversity loss through changes to species distribution and abundance; yet, disentangling the effects of these...
Habitat Loss Accelerates for the Endangered Woodland Caribou in Western 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...
Habitat Loss Accelerates for the Endangered Woodland Caribou in Western Canada
Resource
Habitat loss is often the ultimate cause of species endangerment and is also a leading factor inhibiting species recovery. For this reason, species-at-risk legislation, policies and plans typically...
Habitat Selection at Different Scales for a Declining Aerial Insectivorous Bird as Determined by Autonomous Recording Technology
Resource
Conservation management is impeded by the lack of baseline data for many non-passerine, cryptic, or nocturnal species that are inadequately sampled by traditional monitoring programs. The recent rise...
Hydrogeological Investigation of the Muskeg River Basin, Alberta
Resource
Streamflow in all basins influenced by the disturbance of muskeg. Where muskeg is removed and replaced by mineral soils, stream discharge will decrease during spring runoff and stormflow periods
HydroGeoSim: A Water Purification Geosimulation Modelling Platform
Resource
The model documentation summarizes the data, variables and assumptions required to capture how water purification services are provided across landscapes in Alberta
Impacts of Land-use Management on Ecosystem Services and Biodiversity: An Agent-based Modelling Approach
Resource
This ecosystem service modelling system allows stakeholders to evaluate the opportunities and trade-offs to make informed decisions for achieving land-use planning goals.
Implications of the First Collaborative Non-Invasive DNA Surveys for Boreal Caribou in British Columbia
Resource
This poster was presented at the National Boreal Caribou Workshop in Anchorage, Alaska, in May 2023 British Columbia’s boreal caribou ranges fall within the traditional lands of the Treaty 8 First...
Incorporate Indigenous Perspectives for Impactful Research and Effective Management
Resource
Indigenous knowledge and ecological science have complementary differences that can be fruitfully combined to better understand the past and predict the future of social-ecological systems...
