Amended Recovery Strategy for the Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou), Boreal Population, in Canada [Proposed]
Resource
The recovery strategy sets the strategic direction to arrest or reverse the decline of the species, including identification of critical habitat to the extent possible. It provides all Canadians with...
An Assessment of Sampling Designs Using SCR Analyses to Estimate Abundance of Boreal Caribou
Resource
Abstract Accurately estimating abundance is a critical component of monitoring and recovery of rare and elusive species. Spatial capture–recapture (SCR) models are an increasingly popular method for...

An Intensive Study of the Fish Fauna of the Muskeg River Watershed of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
Study of the fish fauna in the Muskeg River commenced in 1976 with the general objective of describing the baseline states of this resource in the watershed and providing a quantitative estimate
An Intensive Study of the Fish Fauna of the Steepbank River Watershed of Northeastern Alberta
Resource
The resident fish fauna of the Steepbank River consists largely of pearl dace, brook stickleback, lake chub, longnose dace and slimy sculpin.
Analysis and Improvement of Linear Features to Increase Caribou Functional Habitat in West-central and North-western Alberta
Resource
We used GPS data from caribou and wolves, field data on human and wildlife use of seismic lines and pipelines, vegetation heights extracted from LiDAR, non-invasive fecal DNA collections, and a suite...

Aquatic Biological Investigations of the Muskeg River Watershed
Resource
The epilithic microbial and micro-invertebrate communities under conditions of light and shade were studied from April to November 1978
Arctic Borderlands Ecological Knowledge Cooperative: Can Local Knowledge Inform Caribou Management?
Project
This project looked at local knowledge of the Porcupine Caribou Herd, collected by the Arctic Borderlands Ecological Knowledge Co-op (ABEKC). While local observations indicated that the herd was...
Arctic Borderlands Ecological Knowledge Cooperative: Can Local Knowledge Inform Caribou Management?
Resource
While quantitative analyses have traditionally been used to measure overall caribou herd health, qualitative observational data can also provide timely information that reflects what people on the...
Arctic Caribou Contaminant Monitoring Program Report
Resource
This is a report that covers all of the results from a project to monitor contaminants in caribou. Some tests could not be done due to lack of lab capacity during the pandemic. The report concludes...
Assessing Peatland Restoration Success to Meet Alberta’s Peatland Reclamation Criteria
Resource
We conducted a full peatland assessment using the new criteria on a restored well pad near Peace River, Alberta. In 2012, mineral overburden was removed along with geo-textile and the buried peat was...
Assessing Spatial Factors Affecting Predation Risk to Boreal Caribou Calves: Implications for Management
Resource
In 2013, we completed the last year of data collection for the project. Across the project’s three years, we collected GPS data from 57 female caribou, 19 wolves (Canis lupus) and 19 black bears...
Assessment of Phytoremediation as an In-Situ Technique for Cleaning Oil-Contaminated Sites: Phase II Final Report
Resource
The cold climate and short growing season characteristic of the major oil and gas producing regions of western Canada make it particularly important to conduct phytoremediation research on plants...
Audio Data Compression Affects Acoustic Indices and Reduces Detections of Birds by Human Listening and Automated Recognisers
Resource
Increasing popularity in passive acoustic monitoring and the ease with which researchers can accumulate large quantities of acoustic data has resulted in challenges for audio recording storage...
