Limited Impacts of Extensive Human Land Use on Dominance, Specialization, and Biotic Homogenization in Boreal Plant Communities
Resource
Rank species occupancy curves revealed high species dominance regardless of disturbance: within any disturbance class a few species occupied nearly every site and most species were found in a low...
Linear Feature Restoration in Boreal Wetlands
Resource
This presentation discusses linear feature disturbances or boreal peatlands and reclamation trials of various sites. Presented at the NAIT 7th Seminar on Linear Disturbance Impacts on Boreal Wetland...
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 Habitat, Populations and Policy for Caribou in The Face of Increasing Disturbance
Resource
This thesis analyzes female caribou resource selection response to fires and links disturbances to caribou behavior and demography throughout western Canada by relating resource selection responses to...
Low-impact Line Construction Retains and Speeds Recovery of Trees on Seismic Lines in Forested Peatlands
Resource
Seismic lines, linear features originating from the oil and gas industry for energy exploration, pose a substantial management challenge due to their collective impact on biogeochemical cycles, plant...
Making Sites Rough and Loose: A Soil Adjustment Technique
Resource
Rough and loose surface treatments provide an effective way to control erosion and create conditions that promote the revegetation of the site. By creating topographic heterogeneity the rough and...

Managing Wolves (Canis Lupus) to Recover Threatened Woodland Caribou (Rangifer Tarandus Caribou) in Alberta
Resource
Across Canada, woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou (Gmelin, 1788)) populations are declining because of human-induced changes to food webs that are resulting in apparent competition-induced...

Moose, Caribou, and Fire: Have We Got it Right Yet?
Resource
Natural disturbance plays a key role in shaping community dynamics. Within Canadian boreal forests, the dominant form of natural disturbance is fire, and its effects are thought to influence the...
