A Causal Modelling Approach to Informing Woodland Caribou Conservation Policy from Observational Studies
Resource
Examines the scientific framework for woodland caribou recovery efforts through the lens of causal modelling, highlighting feasible steps that could be taken to improve the rigour of causal inferences
Behavioural Responses of Southern Mountain Caribou to Helicopter and Skiing Activities
Resource
Helicopter- and snowcat-supported backcountry skiing is a unique industry that is widespread throughout southern mountain caribou habitat in British Columbia (BC). We analyzed records of helicopter...
Denésoliné (Chipewyan) Knowledge of Barren-Ground Caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) Movements
Resource
Semi-directed interviews relating to the traditional knowledge (TK) of barren-ground caribou ( Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) movements were conducted with elders and hunters from the Denésôliné...
Effect of Forest Understorey Stand Density on Woodland Caribou Habitat Use
Resource
Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) are considered to preferentially use older forests that provide abundant terrestrial lichen forage and refuge from predators. However, structural...
Effect of Forest Understory Stand Density on Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) Habitat Selection
Resource
Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou (Gmelin, 1788)) use older forests that provide abundant terrestrial lichen forage and refuge from predators. However, forest structural characteristics...
Monitoring Barren-Ground Caribou Body Condition with Denésǫłıné Traditional Knowledge
Project
Organization:
This study used interviews with Denésǫłiné elders and hunters from Łutsël K'é, Northwest Territories, Canada, to gather information on caribou body condition and environmental conditions.
Monitoring Barren-Ground Caribou Body Condition with Denésǫłıné Traditional Knowledge
Resource
Information from aboriginal elders and hunters on changes in barren-ground caribou ( Rangifer tarandus) body condition can assist current management systems. Interviews with Denésǫłiné elders and...
Nested Population Structure of Threatened Boreal Caribou Revealed by Network Analysis
Resource
Delineating relevant local populations of widely distributed species is a common challenge in conservation ecology. Caribou and reindeer ( Rangifer tarandus) are in general decline throughout their...
Spatial Structure of Boreal Woodland Caribou Populations in Northwest Canada
Resource
Understanding spatial distributions of organisms and the consequences for conservation policy and management decisions remain important challenges. We describe a method for grouping caribou into plausible candidate Local Population Units that may better approximate geographic closure than the existing LPUs.
The Third Generation of Pan-Canadian Wetland Map at 10 m Resolution Using Multisource Earth Observation Data on Cloud Computing Platform
Resource
Development of the Canadian Wetland Inventory Map (CWIM) has thus far proceeded over two generations, reporting the extent and location of bog, fen, swamp, marsh, and water wetlands across the country...
