Meeting Caribou in the Alpine: Do Moose Compete with Caribou for Food?
Resource
The Atlantic-Gaspesie caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) is an endangered, isolated population that has been declining for decades in response to intensive logging. Timber harvesting has led to a...
Merging Indigenous and Scientific Knowledge Links Climate with the Growth of a Large Migratory Caribou Population
Resource
Climate change in the Arctic is two to three times faster than anywhere else in the world. It is therefore crucial to understand the effects of weather on keystone arctic species, particularly those...
Modeled Production, Oxidation, and Transport Processes of Wetland Methane Emissions in Temperate, Boreal, and Arctic Regions
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...
Natal Habitat Preference Induction in Large Mammals—Like Mother, Like Child?
Project
Organization:
Project Description:We used complementary approaches to assess natal habitat preference induction in a marked population of woodland caribou. All approaches compared the behavior of calves in their...
Natal Habitat Preference Induction in Large Mammals—Like Mother, Like Child?
Resource
...three complementary approaches to assess NHPI in a marked population: (a) population‐based resource selection functions (RSFs), (b) individual‐based RSFs, and (c) behavioral repeatability analyses.
Overcoming Challenges of Sparse Telemetry Data to Estimate Caribou Movement
Resource
Sparse data sets, such as VHF collar locations, can be used to fit movement models whose parameters could not be estimated directly from the data.
Population Ecology of Caribou Populations Without Predators: Southampton and Coats Island Herds
Resource
This paper is a review of the ecology of two caribou populations inhabiting predator-free northern islands, Coats and Southampton Island. Findings are analyzed in light of the hypothesis that in...
Range Fidelity: The Missing Link Between Caribou Decline and Habitat Alteration?
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...
Recent Climate Change has Driven Divergent Hydrological Shifts in High-latitude Peatlands
Resource
High-latitude peatlands are changing rapidly in response to climate change, including permafrost thaw. Here, we reconstruct hydrological conditions since the seventeenth century using testate amoeba...
Results of Vegetation Survey as a Part of Neutralizing Lime Sludge Valorization Assessment
Resource
The use of the lime neutralization process is a common technique to treat acid mine drainage (AMD) generated by sulphidic mine wastes. The AMD-contaminated water collected on the mine site is...
Satellite Determination of Peatland Water Table Temporal Dynamics by Localizing Representative Pixels of A SWIR-Based Moisture Index
Resource
The OPtical TRApezoid Model (OPTRAM) is a physically-based approach for remote soil moisture estimation. OPTRAM is based on the response of short-wave infrared (SWIR) reflectance to vegetation water...
Science-informed Policy Decisions Lead to the Creation of a Protected Area for a Wide-ranging Species at Risk
Resource
Protected areas are needed to conserve nature and biodiversity worldwide. The province of Québec (Canada) recently established a large wilderness area affording significant habitat protection for...
Stairway to Heaven or Highway to Hell? How Characteristics of Forest Roads Shape their use by Large Mammals in the Boreal Forest
Resource
By showing which forest roads are more used by caribou predators (wolves and bears) and its apparent competitor (moose), our study highlights the importance of considering both road-scale characteristics and the landscape context in which roads are built to prioritize the most detrimental roads to caribou conservation and guide efficient restoration efforts of its habitat.
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...
