The governments of Canada and Quebec are reporting significant progress in discussions surrounding the management, protection and recovery of boreal caribou. With financial support from the federal...
Slowing Down Wolves to Protect Boreal Caribou Populations: A Spatial Simulation Model of Linear Feature Restoration
Resource
In Canada, boreal caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) are declining in numbers, in part due to increased predation by wolves ( Canis lupus). One management option to reduce wolf–caribou interactions...
Space-use Behaviour of Woodland Caribou Based on a Cognitive Movement Model
Resource
Movement patterns offer a rich source of information on animal behaviour and the ecological significance of landscape attributes. This is especially useful for species occupying remote landscapes...

Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
The Climatology of the Alberta Oil Sands Environmental Research Program Study Area
Resource
Winters are cold with relatively little snow. About two-thirds of the precipitation falls in the summer months with several major rainstorms generally accounting for much of the seasonal rain
The Direct and Habitat-mediated Influence of Climate on the Biogeography of Boreal Caribou in Canada
Resource
Effective species conservation efforts require insight into whether a species’ extent of occurrence may shift due to changing climate, habitat loss, or both. The extent of occurrence of the threatened...
