Leveraging Genomics Tools to Explore Relationships Between Agriculture, Biodiversity and Waterfowl Productivity in Prairie Wetlands
Resource
Environmental genomics is a research method that sequences DNA from samples collected from the environment (e.g. wetlands, water, soil, organisms, etc.). This method can accelerate species...
Literature Review - Caribou, Fire, and Forestry
Resource
With of goal of understanding how silviculture and harvesting practices might mirror those of natural disturbances, here we summarize research describing differences in responses of caribou and...
Litter Decomposition and Nutrient Dynamics of Four Macrophytes in Intact, Restored, and Constructed Freshwater Marshes of Canada
Resource
The restoration and construction of wetlands offer opportunities to rewet soils, inhibit decomposition, and enhance nutrient retention in decomposing litters. Here, we report the decomposition rates...
Lost in Translation? Insights into Caribou Habitat Selection from Forest Inventory Data
Resource
Abstract The gap between research and its implementation is an impediment to conservation of the environment. Translating science into actionable management and policy requires effective communication...
Mapping Resource Selection Functions for Caribou and Wolves in the Chinchaga Caribou Range
Resource
We used GPS telemetry location data from 63 adult caribou and 6 adult wolves to build spatially explicit resource selection function (RSF) rasters. These RSF rasters describe the within-home-range...
