Climate, Caribou and Human Needs Linked by Analysis of Indigenous and Scientific Knowledge
Resource
Migratory tundra caribou are ecologically and culturally critical in the circumpolar North. However, they are declining almost everywhere in North America, probably due to natural variation...
Climate Change Vulnerability of Alberta Species
Resource
Vulnerability to climate change of more than 170 of Alberta’s native species is assessed on the basis of exposure and sensitivity to change
Climate Change Vulnerability of Alberta’s Terrestrial Biodiversity: A Preliminary Assessment
Resource
This report provides a broad overview of how Alberta species are likely to be affected by climate change by the 2050s. Amphibians were consistently found to be the most vulnerable to climate change
Climate-informed Forecasts Reveal Dramatic Local Habitat Shifts and Population Uncertainty for Northern Boreal Caribou
Resource
Most research on boreal populations of Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) has been conducted in areas of high anthropogenic disturbance. However, a large portion of the species’ range...
CNVs with Adaptive Potential in Rangifer tarandus: Genome Architecture and New Annotated Assembly
Resource
Rangifer tarandus has experienced recent drastic population size reductions throughout its circumpolar distribution and preserving the species implies genetic diversity conservation. To facilitate...
Collaborative Landscape Data to Support Woodland Caribou Recovery Planning in Northwestern Alberta
Resource
We collected high-resolution aerial imagery and associated ground-truthed data from four sampling blocks in two caribou ranges to assess human footprint accuracy and state of vegetation recovery.
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...
Columbia Mountains Caribou Research Project
Project
Contact
Organization:
Project Description: Beginning in 2003, moose populations were intentionally reduced by increased hunting pressure as an indirect way of reducing wolf numbers — fewer moose on the landscape means...
Comparing Deep Learning and Shallow Learning for Large-Scale Wetland Classification in Alberta, Canada
Resource
Developed two wetland inventory style products for a large (397,958 km2) area in the Boreal Forest region of Alberta, Canada, using Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, and ALOS DEM data
Comparison of Sampling Techniques to Monitor Stream Amphibian Communities in Forested Regions of Alberta
Resource
Objective was to compare the effectiveness of four commonly used sampling techniques (pitfall traps, funnel traps, visual searches and call surveys) to detect stream amphibian communities.
Compensatory Conservation Measures for an Endangered Caribou Population Under Climate Change
Resource
Future human land use and climate change may disrupt movement behaviors of terrestrial animals, thereby altering the ability of individuals to move across a landscape. Some of the expected changes...
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.
Controls on Plot-Scale Growing Season CO2 and CH4 Fluxes in Restored Peatlands: Do They Differ From Unrestored and Natural Sites?
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...
Corridors or Risk? Movement Along, and Use of, Linear Features Vary Predictably Among Large Mammal Predator and Prey Species
Resource
The objective of this study is to evaluate wolf, black bear, moose and caribou responses to anthropogenic linear features, attempting to determine whether these features are perceived as movement...
Creating a Detailed Wetland Inventory with Sentinel-2 Time-Series Data and Google Earth Engine in the Prairie Pothole Region of Canada
Resource
Wetlands in the Prairie Pothole Region (PPR) of Canada and the United States represent a unique mapping challenge. They are dynamic both seasonally and year-to-year, are very small, and frequently...
Cross-Scale Controls on Carbon Emissions from Boreal Forest Megafires
Resource
