Monitoring Ecological Recovery of Reclaimed Wellsites: Protocols for Quantifying Recovery on Forested Lands
Resource
We developed a scientifically robust and financially sustainable monitoring protocol to enable a consistent assessment of ecological recovery at reclaimed industrial wellsites in forested lands
Moose, Caribou, and Fire: Have We Got it Right Yet?
Resource
Natural disturbance plays a key role in shaping community dynamics. Within Canadian boreal forests, the dominant form of natural disturbance is fire, and its effects are thought to influence the...
Motorized Activity on Legacy Seismic Lines: A Predictive Modeling Approach to Prioritize Restoration Efforts
Resource
Natural regeneration of seismic lines, cleared for hydrocarbon exploration, is slow and often hindered by vegetation damage, soil compaction, and motorized human activity. There is an extensive...
Mounding Treatments Set Back Bryophyte Recovery on Linear Disturbances in Treed Peatlands
Resource
Treed peatlands are dominated by bryophytes, particularly Sphagnum spp., which create the characteristic hummock-hollow microtopography. This, in turn, shapes the distribution of bryophyte communities...
Movement Responses by Wolves to Industrial Linear Features and Their Effect on Woodland Caribou in Northeastern Alberta
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...

Natural Regeneration of Forest Vegetation on Legacy Seismic Lines in Boreal Habitats in Alberta’s Oil Sands Region
Resource
Mapping of oil reserves involves the use of seismic lines (linear disturbances) to determine both their location and extent. Conventional clearing techniques for seismic assessment have left a legacy...
Natural Regeneration on Seismic Lines Influences Movement Behaviour of Wolves and Grizzly Bears
Resource
Across the boreal forest of Canada, habitat disturbance is the ultimate cause of caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) declines. Habitat restoration is a focus of caribou recovery efforts, with a goal...
Network of Wildlife Cameras and Audio Recorders Expanded to Better Monitor Biodiversity
News
Organization
Biodiversity monitoring partners across the NWT are getting a closer look at wildlife as the Government of the Northwest Territories’ Biodiversity Monitoring Program expands. Remote cameras and audio...
No Statistical Support for Wolf Control and Maternal Penning as Conservation Measures for Endangered Mountain Caribou
Resource
Abstract Mountain caribou, a behaviourally and genetically distinct set of ecotypes of the Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) restricted to the mountains of western Canada, have undergone...

Northwest Territories Boreal Caribou Population and Harvest Models
Resource
This report provides the details of the construction and application of a set of population and harvest models for boreal caribou in two Wildlife Management Zones and six other areas of interest in...
Northwest Territories Environment and Natural Resources seeking caribou heads to monitor for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD)
News
Organization
Northwest Territories Environment and Natural Resources is requesting that hunters hand over caribou, moose, and white-tailed deer heads to facilitate monitoring for Chronic Wasting Disease. A $50...
Nowhere to Hide: Effects of Linear Features on Predator–Prey Dynamics in a Large Mammal System
Resource
Rapid landscape alteration associated with human activity is currently challenging the evolved dynamical stability of many predator–prey systems by forcing species to behaviourally respond to novel...
NWT Conference of Management Authorities: Consensus Agreement on Listing Northern Mountain Caribou
Resource
This 11 page document is the agreement by the NWT management authorities responsible for the northern population of mountain caribou (woodland caribou in northern mountain habitat) to add the caribou...
