Scientists Assess Paths Towards Maintaining BC Caribou Until Habitat Recovers
News
Organization
Thanks to drastic and evidence-based solutions, more southern mountain caribou roam Western Canada today than in previous decades; however, herd numbers are too fragile to sustain themselves without...
Selection for Forage and Avoidance of Risk by Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) at Coarse and Local Scales
Resource
The relationship between selection at coarse and fine spatiotemporal spatial scales is still poorly understood. Some authors claim that, to accommodate different needs at different scales, individuals...
Semi-aquatic Mammals: Annotated Bibliography
Resource
Annotated bibliography contains 776 entries grouped under the species: muskrat, beaver, mink, and otter
Setting a Foundation for Indigenous Knowledge Systems-guided Boreal Caribou (tǫdzı) Conservation Planning in the Western Boreal Region of Canada: A Systematic Map Protocol
Resource
Abstract In recent years, researchers have increasingly recognized the need to bridge Western and Indigenous knowledge systems to strengthen research in wildlife conservation. Historically, this arena...
Soil: The Environmental Integrator
Resource
Soil is defined in terms of dynamic circulation patterns of water, air and minerals driven by solar energy. The soil is the reactor and exchanger of energy and matter and, as such, is the terrestrial...
Space-use Behaviour of Woodland Caribou Based on a Cognitive Movement Model
Resource
Movement patterns offer a rich source of information on animal behaviour and the ecological significance of landscape attributes. This is especially useful for species occupying remote landscapes...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
The Distribution of Nutrients and Organic Matter in Native Mountain Grasslands and Reclaimed Coal-mined Areas in Southeastern B.C.
Resource
The study's purpose is to assess the nutrient self-sufficiency of five-year-old reclaimed areas in montane and subalpine environments. Adjacent, undisturbed native grasslands were also studied for...
The Effects of Maternal Penning on the Movement Ecology of Mountain Caribou
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...
The Effects of Variable Retention Harvesting on Caribou Terrestrial Forage Lichens
Resource
Northern caribou depend on terrestrial lichens as a primary source of food during winter. This paper illustrates how changes in harvesting intensity affect terrestrial lichen abundance, species...
The influence of habitat alteration is widespread, but the impact of climate cannot continue to be discounted
Resource
This is a letter to the editor in response to a previous letter to the editor. In Dickie et al. (2024), we contrasted the effects of climate and habitat alteration on white-tailed deer density...
The Influence of Habitat Alteration on Density of Invading White-tailed Deer Should not be Discounted
Resource
This is a letter to the editor responding to an earlier article. Growing white-tailed deer populations in Canada's boreal forest are linked to declines of threatened boreal caribou populations. Recent...
The Spatial Patterns of Anthropogenic Disturbance in the Western Canadian Boreal Forest Following Oil and Gas Development
Resource
Resource development can have significant consequences for the distribution of vegetation cover and for species persistence. Modelling changes to anthropogenic disturbance regimes over time can...

Organization:
This collection contains all theses and dissertations produced at the University of Guelph since 2011.
Trophic Consequences of Terrestrial Eutrophication for a Threatened Ungulate
Resource
Conservation actions directed at the proximate cause of caribou decline have been more successful in the near term than those directed further along the trophic chain.
"Two-Eyed Seeing": An Indigenous Framework to Transform Fisheries Research and Management
Resource
Increasingly, fisheries researchers and managers seek or are compelled to “bridge” Indigenous knowledge systems with Western scientific approaches to understanding and governing fisheries. Here, we...
Using Perceptions as Evidence to Improve Conservation and Environmental Management
Resource
The conservation community is increasingly focusing on the monitoring and evaluation of management, governance, ecological, and social considerations as part of a broader move toward adaptive...
