Large-scale Prion Protein Genotyping in Canadian Caribou Populations and Potential Impact on Chronic Wasting Disease Susceptibility
Resource
Here, we report the prevalence and distribution of R. tarandus prion protein polymorphisms obtained from 986 caribou samples from BC, Yukon, NT, Nunavut and Saskatchewan
Large-scale Probabilistic Identification of Boreal Peatlands Using Google Earth Engine, Open-access Satellite Data, and Machine Learning
Resource
The resulting peatland occurrence model shows an accuracy of 87% compared to our validation data set. Differentiating peatlands from mineral wetlands achieved an accuracy of 69%.
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...
Linear Features, Forestry and Wolf Predation of Caribou and Other Prey in West Central Alberta
