Less Flammable Vegetation for Linear Industry Rights-‐of-‐way
Resource
FPInnovations launched a multi-year study to determine whether a less-flammable, herbaceous species could replace the flammable grasses that typically colonize linear ROWs
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...
Loss of Connectivity Among Island-dwelling Peary Caribou Following Sea Ice Decline
Resource
Global warming threatens to reduce population connectivity for terrestrial wildlife through significant and rapid changes to sea ice. Using genetic fingerprinting, we contrasted extant connectivity in...
Maintaining Animal Assemblages Through Single-species Management: The Case of Threatened Caribou in Boreal Forest
Resource
With the intensification of human activities, preserving animal populations is a contemporary challenge of critical importance. In this context, the umbrella species concept is appealing because...
Mammal Responses to Human Recreation Depend on Landscape Context
Resource
Rapid growth in outdoor recreation may have important and varied effects on terrestrial mammal communities. Few studies have investigated factors influencing variation in observed responses of...
Management of Soil Sterilant Impacted Sites
Resource
Objective - develop a collective understanding of the scope of sites impacted by soil sterilants (bromacil and tebuthiuron) and the specific challenges associated with their remediation and management
Management of Sterilant Impacted Sites: Literature Synthesis
Resource
Several major challenges were identified associated with management of sterilant-impacted sites in Alberta through this literature review, industry consultation and personal communication
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...
Mapping and Characterization of Cutover Peatlands
Resource
Methodology for cost-effective soil survey and sampling of cutover peatlands, and obtaining baseline chemical information and data interpretation for peat materials to examine reclamation alternatives
Market Assessment of the Native Plant Industry in Western Canada
Resource
The objective of this project was to conduct a comprehensive market assessment of the native plant industry
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...
