Amendment of Gold Mine Tailings with Modified Humic Substances to Promote Soil Development and Plant Growth
Resource
To promote the establishment of vegetation, modified humic substances were added to gold mine tailings in rates of 2 g C kg -1, 3 g C kg -1 and 4 g C kg -1 tailings as an amendment. Growth chamber and...
An Interdisciplinary Approach to Describing Biological Diversity
Resource
Abstract The concept of biodiversity – the phenotypic and genotypic variation among organisms – is central to conservation biology. There is growing recognition that biodiversity does not exist in...

Organization:
This PhD project use multiple disciplinary traditions to develop comprehensive and united representations of caribou variation through an exploration of population genetics, phylogenetics, traditional...
Balancing Between Predation Risk and Food by Boreal Breeding Ducks
Resource
Wetlands belong to the globally most threatened habitats, and organisms depending on them are of conservation concern. Wetland destruction and quality loss may affect negatively also boreal breeding...
Climate Change Reduces Reproductive Success of an Arctic Herbivore Through Trophic Mismatch
Resource
Effective ecological monitoring is central to the sustainability of subsistence resources of indigenous communities. For caribou, Arctic indigenous people's most important terrestrial subsistence...
Collaborative research and monitoring of migratory Eastern Cape Chruchill caribou
Project
Organization:
The Cape Churchill caribou herd, part of the Eastern Migratory caribou population, resides along the western coast of Hudson Bay and has been largely unstudied. However, they are locally important to...
Combining Science and Traditional Ecological Knowledge: Monitoring Populations for Co-Management
Resource
Using a combination of traditional ecological knowledge and science to monitor populations can greatly assist co-management for sustainable customary wildlife harvests by indigenous peoples. Case...

Decreased Carbon Accumulation Feedback Driven by Climate‐Induced Drying of Two Southern Boreal Bogs over Recent Centuries
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...
Denésoliné (Chipewyan) Knowledge of Barren-Ground Caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) Movements
Resource
Semi-directed interviews relating to the traditional knowledge (TK) of barren-ground caribou ( Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) movements were conducted with elders and hunters from the Denésôliné...
Environmental Spaces for Palsas and Peat Plateaus are Disappearing at a Circumpolar Scale
Resource
The anthropogenic climate change threatens northern permafrost environments. This compromises the existence of permafrost landforms, such as palsas and peat plateaus, which have been assessed to be...
Fecal DNA, Hormones, and Pellet Morphometrics as a Noninvasive Method to Estimate Age Class: An Application to Wild Populations of Central Mountain and Boreal Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus Caribou)
Resource
Study tests a noninvasive method via fecal DNA, hormones, and pellet morphometrics to distinguish calf from adult in Central Mountain and Boreal woodland caribou populations.
Genetic Influences on Male and Female Variance in Reproductive Success and Implications for the Recovery of Severely Endangered Mountain Caribou
Resource
Assessment of three endangered caribou subpopulations using non-invasive genetic sampling to assess demographic population changes.
Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...
