Assessing Spatial Factors Affecting Predation Risk to Boreal Caribou Calves: Implications for Management
Resource
In 2013, we completed the last year of data collection for the project. Across the project’s three years, we collected GPS data from 57 female caribou, 19 wolves (Canis lupus) and 19 black bears...
Assessing the Health-fitness Dynamics of Endangered Mountain Caribou and the Influence of Maternal Penning
Resource
Abstract The health of wildlife plays a crucial role in population demography by connecting habitat and physiology. Southern mountain caribou, a population of woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus...
Assessing the Suitability of a One-time Sampling Event for Close-kin Mark-recapture: A Caribou Case Study
Resource
Abstract Abundance estimation is frequently an objective of conservation and monitoring initiatives for threatened and other managed populations. While abundance estimation via capture–mark–recapture...
Assisted Dispersal and Retention of Lichen-dominated Biocrust Material for Arctic Restoration
Resource
This resource is available on an external database and may require a paid subscription to access it. It is included on the CCLM to support our goal of capturing and sharing the breadth of all...
Audio Data Compression Affects Acoustic Indices and Reduces Detections of Birds by Human Listening and Automated Recognisers
Resource
Increasing popularity in passive acoustic monitoring and the ease with which researchers can accumulate large quantities of acoustic data has resulted in challenges for audio recording storage...
Automated Classification of Avian Vocal Activity Using Acoustic Indices in Regional and Heterogeneous Datasets
Resource
Acoustic indices combined with clustering and classification approaches have been increasingly used to automate identification of the presence of vocalizing taxa or acoustic events of interest. While...
Avian Response to Wildfire Severity in a Northern Boreal Region
Resource
Research Highlights: The effects of fire on birds in the most northern parts of the boreal forest are understudied. We found distinct differences in bird communities with increasing fire severity in...
Backgrounder on the Cost-Sharing Understanding Concerning the Implementation of the Cooperation Agreement for the Protection and Recovery of Species at Risk in Quebec Applied to Boreal Caribou and its Habitat
Resource
Cooperation AGREEMENT - quebec The purpose of this Agreement is to implement activities that promote the self-sustainability of boreal caribou populations in all ranges in Quebec, thereby contributing...
Benefits of Fertilization for White Spruce and Lodgepole Pine Trees Depend on the Reclamation Substrate – Overburden vs Tailings Sand
Resource
Nitrogen and complete fertilizer applications improved growth of white spruce on overburden sites. Fertilization did not, however, have an effect on lodgepole pine growth on tailings sand sites
Bioengineering Techniques for Revegetation of Riparian Areas at the Colomac Mine, NWT
Resource
Factors such as nutrient poor soils, harsh climate, remote locations, and high costs make revegetating disturbed areas in northern environments a challenge. We present a case study where novel...
Black Bear Use of Seismic Lines in Northern Canada
Resource

Boreal Caribou Can Coexist with Natural but Not Industrial Disturbances
Resource
Abstract: For species at risk, it is important that demographic models be consistent with our most recent knowledge because alternate model versions can have differing predictions for wildlife and...
Boreal Caribou Conservation Agreements (s11)
Project
Organization:
Species at risk act (SARA) section 11: conservation agreements Section 11 (Conservation Agreements) are the third provision in SARA that provides for legal protection of terrestrial critical habitat...
Boreal Caribou Science to Inform Recovery – Science Summary Sheet #1
Resource
This summary sheet provides a synthesis of two science pieces completed by ECCC: the 2011 meta-analysis of boreal caribou population and habitat condition, and the scientific research to inform...
Boreal Caribou Traditional Knowledge-based Habitat Supply Model, Restoration and Monitoring Strategy for Constance Lake Traditional Territory in Ontario
Project
Contact
The purpose of this project is to enable Constance Lake First Nation to address the threat of habitat loss, degradation, and fragmentation for the Woodland Caribou, boreal population (Threatened)...
Boreal Trees Can Grow on Saline Sites – Implications for Reclamation Success on Saline Soils
Resource
Both aspen and spruce grew on sites with very high salinity and pH deeper in the soil profile (i.e., 40-100cm), so long as surface soils were not highly saline and had adequate moisture and nutrients.
Breeding Distribution and Behaviour of the White Pelican in the Athabasca Oil Sands Area.
Resource
Aerial surveys and ground investigations were conducted in the spring and summer months from 1975 to 1977 on a breeding population of White Pelicans (Pelecanus erythrorhynchos) in the Birch Mountains
