Assessing the Cumulative Impacts of Forest Management on Forest Age Structure Development and Woodland Caribou Habitat in Boreal Landscapes: A Case Study from Two Canadian Provinces
Resource
The Canadian boreal forest biome has been subjected to a long history of management for wood production. Here, we examined the cumulative impacts of logging on older forests in terms of area...
Climate Change Alone Cannot Explain Boreal Caribou Range Recession in Quebec Since 1850
Resource
Abstract The contraction of species range is one of the most significant symptoms of biodiversity loss worldwide. While anthropogenic activities and habitat alteration are major threats for several...
Demographic Responses of Boreal Caribou to Cumulative Disturbances Highlight Elasticity of Range-specific Tolerance Thresholds
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...
Drivers of Vegetation Regrowth on Logging Roads in the Boreal Forest: Implications for Restoration of Woodland Caribou Habitat
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...
Ecosystem Management in Paludified Boreal Forests: Enhancing Wood Production, Biodiversity, and Carbon Sequestration at the Landscape Level
Resource
Canada’s boreal forest represents an important contributor of the world’s wood supply industry. However, maintaining or increasing productivity of the boreal forest may be challenging in areas...

The IISAAK OLAM Foundation and the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) are inviting all First Nations persons who have experience with monitoring, harvesting, and managing species at risk (SAR) and...
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...
Indigenous Women's Leadership: The Trailblazers of Conservation
Event
Event Date and Time
March 8th, 2022 at 1:00pm EST to March 8th, 2022 at 3:00pm EST
Organization
Join us as we celebrate and honour Indigenous women trailblazers of all ages in conservation leadership. This intergenerational discussion will explore the contributions of fearless Indigenous women...
Management-mediated Predation Rate in the Caribou–Moose–Wolf System: Spatial Configuration of Logging Activities Matters
Resource
Landscape complexity can determine the population dynamics of interacting predators and prey. Yet, management plans are commonly developed from aspatial predictive models. This oversight may result in...
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...
Spatial and Temporal Variation in Forest Transpiration Across a Forested Boreal Peatland Complex
Resource
Transpiration is a globally important component of evapotranspiration. Careful upscaling of transpiration from point measurements is thus crucial for quantifying water and energy fluxes. In spatially...

Organization
Join us to learn about Inuit-led conservation initiatives in Labrador and Nunavut. Dr. Jamie Snook (Torngat Secretariat) and Derrick Pottle (Knowledge Holder, Guide, and Polar Bear Specialist) will...
The Essential Carbon Service Provided by Northern Peatlands
Resource
Northern peatlands have cooled the global climate by accumulating large quantities of soil carbon (C) over thousands of years. Maintaining the C sink function of these peatlands and their immense long...
