Conservation of Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) in Canada: An Uncertain Future
Resource
Caribou (Rangifer tarandus (L., 1758)) play a central role in the ecology and culture of much of Canada, where they were once the most abundant cervid. Most populations are currently declining, and...
Conservation of Future Boreal Forest Bird Communities Considering Lags in Vegetation Response to Climate Change: A Modified Refugia Approach
Resource
For some boreal songbirds, limits to forest growth and succession may result in dramatic reductions in suitable habitat over the next century.
Conserving Alberta’s Biodiversity Under Climate Change: A Review and Analysis of Adaptation Measures
Resource
Although ecological transitions are expected to be widespread, under even the least-change climate scenario, ecological change is not synonymous with the loss of biodiversity.
Conserving Canada’s Ash Resource / La conservation des frênes du Canada
Resource
The National Tree Seed Centre (NTSC) is safeguarding Canada’s forest genetic resources. In response to the threat posed by the emerald ash borer ( Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire), the NTSC is storing...
Controls on Methylmercury Concentrations in Lakes and Streams of Peatland-Rich Catchments Along a 1700 km Permafrost Gradient
Resource
Permafrost thaw may increase the production of neurotoxic methylmercury (MeHg) in northern peatlands, but the downstream delivery of MeHg is uncertain. We quantified total mercury (THg) and MeHg...
