Movement Responses of Caribou to Human-Induced Habitat Edges Lead to Their Aggregation near Anthropogenic Features
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...
Multi-Level Functional Responses for Wildlife Conservation: The Case of Threatened Caribou in Managed Boreal Forests
Resource
1. The selection for particular habitat patches can vary as a function of local and regional levels of anthropogenic disturbance. Although such functional responses can better reveal habitat loss for...

Natal Habitat Preference Induction in Large Mammals—Like Mother, Like Child?
Project
Organization:
Project Description:We used complementary approaches to assess natal habitat preference induction in a marked population of woodland caribou. All approaches compared the behavior of calves in their...
Natal Habitat Preference Induction in Large Mammals—Like Mother, Like Child?
Resource
...three complementary approaches to assess NHPI in a marked population: (a) population‐based resource selection functions (RSFs), (b) individual‐based RSFs, and (c) behavioral repeatability analyses.
Nested Population Structure of Threatened Boreal Caribou Revealed by Network Analysis
Resource
Delineating relevant local populations of widely distributed species is a common challenge in conservation ecology. Caribou and reindeer ( Rangifer tarandus) are in general decline throughout their...
New ESSA Membership Categories
News
Organization
ESAA is pleased to announce two new membership categories. In addition to the legacy Full and Associate membership categories, the two new categories are: • Sole Proprietor ($400 + GST) - Any...
Occupancy and Abundance of Pond-Breeding Anurans in Boreal Landscapes
Resource
As resource extraction moves north across the globe, wetland ecosystems in Canada are increasingly degraded because of disturbances associated with anthropic activities, including timber harvesting...
Oil Sands Remediation – What’s the (end) Point?
Resource
Remediation professionals, regulators, industry and stakeholders must begin discussions to resolve uncertainty around oil sands COPCs so that efforts can be focused on solving the “real” problem
Overcoming Challenges of Sparse Telemetry Data to Estimate Caribou Movement
Resource
Sparse data sets, such as VHF collar locations, can be used to fit movement models whose parameters could not be estimated directly from the data.

Organization:
The Peatland Ecology Research Group (PERG) was formed through the partnership of the university scientific community, the Canadian peat moss industry and federal and provincial agencies. Our common...
Peatland Ecology Research Group 24th Symposium Abstracts

Permafrost Thaw Causes Large Carbon Loss in Boreal Peatlands While Changes to Peat Quality are Limited
Resource
Rapid, ongoing permafrost thaw of peatlands in the discontinuous permafrost zone is exposing a globally significant store of soil carbon (C) to microbial processes. Mineralization and release of this...
Phase II Assessments and Phase III Remediation: A Brief History
Resource
In this paper, we review the development of Phase II Assessments and Phase III Remediation science over the last thirty years: what aspects have improved, and what aspects have not improved.
Possibilités de réutilisation et de réamenagement de mines abandonnées souterraines; considérations géologiques et environnementales
Resource
Jusqu'à maintenant, beaucoup de recherche et de projets de restauratlon de sites miniers abandonnées partout à travers le monde ont été réalisés et la plupart d'entre eux portent en fait sur la...
Post-fire Peatland Vegetation Recovery: A Case Study in Open Rich Fens of the Canadian Boreal Forest
Resource
Fire plays a major role in structuring and the functioning of boreal ecosystems. As peatlands are important components of boreal forests, the impact of fire upon these wetter ecosystems is...
Potential for Competition Between Muskox and Migratory Caribou in Nunavik
Project
Project Description:This project will assess the potential for competition between caribou and muskox in northern Quebec, particularly in regards to space use, habitat selection and diet overlap...
Predicting Patterns of Terrestrial Lichen Biomass Recovery Following Boreal Wildfires
Resource
New allometric equations to estimate lichen biomass from field measurements of lichen cover and height; allometries were consistent among ecoprovinces, suggesting generalizability
