Global Change Risks a Threatened Species due to Alteration of Predator–prey Dynamics
Resource
Although global change can reshape ecosystems by triggering cascading effects on food webs, indirect interactions remain largely overlooked. Climate- and land-use-induced changes in landscape cause...
Global Water Futures
Project
Organization:
Global Water Futures: Solutions to Water Threats in an Era of Global Change is a University of Saskatchewan-led research program that is funded in part by a $77.8-million grant from the Canada First...
Governance as a Driver of Change in the Canadian Boreal Zone
Resource
The Canadian boreal forest is primarily public land, owned and managed by provincial governments on behalf of the public interest. Boreal forest governance consists of a complex patchwork of federal...

Habitat Selection and Population Trends of the Torngat Mountains Caribou Herd
Project
Organization:
Project Description:We fitted 9 Argos and 26 global positioning system (GPS)-collars on 35 adult caribou (25 female, 10 male) from the declining Torngat Mountains caribou herd in northern Quebec...
Habitat Selection and Population Trends of the Torngat Mountains Caribou Herd
Resource
We fitted collars on 35 adult caribou to assess seasonal habitat selection at 2 spatial scales, current and future population trends, and interactions with the neighboring migratory caribou herd.
Harvesting Surface Vegetation Does Not Impede Self-Recovery of Sphagnum Peatlands
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...
Harvesting Surface Vegetation does not Impede Self‐Recovery of Sphagnum Peatlands
Resource
Ecosystem restoration frequently involves the reintroduction of plant material in the degraded ecosystem. When there are no plant nurseries or seeds available on the market, the plant material has to...
How Linear Features Alter Predator Movement and the Functional Response
Resource
In areas of oil and gas exploration, seismic lines have been reported to alter the movement patterns of wolves (Canis lupus). We developed a mechanistic first passage time model, based on an...
Human Disturbance Effects and Cumulative Habitat Loss in Endangered Migratory Caribou
Resource
A 2018 academic paper to assess the effects of human disturbance on barren-ground caribou herds. This study focuses on the Leaf River and George River herds in northern Quebec and Labrador. The paper...

Impacts of Spruce Budworm Defoliation on the Habitat of Woodland Caribou, Moose, and Their Main Predators
Resource
Forest logging has contributed to the decline of several woodland caribou populations by causing the fragmentation of mature coniferous stands. Such habitat alterations could be worsened by spruce...
Increased Nutrient Availability Speeds up Permafrost Development, While Goose Grazing Slows it Down in a Canadian High Arctic Wetland
Resource
1. It is of prime importance to understand feedbacks due to the release of carbon (C) stored in permafrost soils (permafrost-climate feedback) and direct impacts of climatic variations on permafrost...
Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...
