Manitoba’s Boreal Woodland Caribou Recovery Strategy is a living document that outlines management initiatives and direction for conservation of boreal caribou across Manitoba for the next 10 years...
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.
The National Tree Seed Centre (NTSC) is safeguarding Canada’s forest genetic resources. In response to the threat posed by the emerald ash borer ( Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire), the NTSC is storing...
The hydroperiod (i.e., the length of time ponded water is present) of prairie potholes is sensitive to climate change. Because snowmelt runoff is the largest contributor to ponded water amounts, a...
A pilot scale constructed wetland was built at the Strachan Gas Plant to evaluate its ability to treat dissolved phase hydrocarbons in groundwater. The overall objective was to assess the feasibility...
Pit reclaimed such that the end pit and inlet/outlet streams would sustain in perpetuity the full range of habitat and watershed features needed to support native Athabasca Rainbow and Bull Trout
Two caribou populations in West Greenland were sampled and the kidneys, liver and muscle analyzed for contaminants, including aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, copper, lead, mercury, selenium and zinc...
Group size can vary in relation to population density, habitat, and season. Habitat and season may also interact with population density and affect group size through varying foraging benefits of...
Warming temperatures and advancing spring are affecting annual snow and ice cycles, as well as plant phenology, across the Arctic and boreal regions. These changes may be linked to observed population...
Studies were continued in 1976 into the improvement of a five year old revegetated area on a tailings sand dike by the implementation of different fertilizer programs.
Analyzed the population dynamics and offspring production of sympatric caribou and muskoxen in West Greenland over an 18-year period (2002–2019) during which the timing of spring green-up has advanced
Abstract Attitudes and perceptions toward caribou ( Rangifer tarandus) management practices held by users and managers of the Western Arctic Herd (WAH) in Alaska and the Beverly and Qamanirjuaq herds...
To evaluate the importance of rain events to these rivers, discharge and water quality sampling was conducted at river sites in this region. Two approaches were used to collect water quality samples:...
Arctic Indigenous Peoples are among the most exposed humans when it comes to foodborne mercury (Hg). In response, Hg monitoring and research have been on-going in the circumpolar Arctic since about...
Program to address the extensive problems of biting flies in agriculture and provide information for management of black flies that occur during development of resource and recreational industries
Control rodent damage by: (1) Planting trees and shrubs when rodent numbers are at the low or declining phase of their cycle, and (2) Manipulating rodent numbers by manipulating vegetative cover.
