Evidence of Migratory Coupling Between Grey Wolves and Migratory Caribou
Resource
Abstract Large-scale animal migrations influence population and community dynamics along with ecosystem functioning. The migratory coupling concept posits that movement of migrant prey can lead to...
Extreme Precipitation Reduces Reproductive Output of an Endangered Raptor
Resource
Frequency and intensity of extreme weather has increased against a backdrop of anthropogenic land change. Extreme rainfall during the breeding season reduced reproductive success of burrowing owls.
Factors Affecting Abundance of Beaver Dams in Forested Landscapes
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...
Factors Driving Territory Size and Breeding Success in a Threatened Migratory Songbird, the Canada Warbler
Resource
Successful conservation of migratory birds demands we understand how habitat factors on the breeding grounds influences breeding success. Multiple factors are known to directly influence breeding...
Faster and Farther: Wolf Movement on Linear Features and Implications for Hunting Behaviour
Resource
Predation by grey wolves Canis lupus has been identified as an important cause of boreal woodland caribou Rangifer tarandus caribou mortality, and it has been hypothesized that wolf use of human...
Fen Restoration in Manitoba
Resource
The Peatland Ecology Research Group (PERG), based in Université Laval (Québec City), has been conducting research on peatland management practices since 1992. Over the years, in partnership with the...
Ferruginous Hawk Climate Change Adaptation Plan for Alberta
Resource
The Alberta Ferruginous Hawk Recovery Plan 2009 – 2014 identifies climate change as a factor potentially threatening the recovery of the species in Alberta.
Field Assessment of Sulphide Oxidation Rates in Cold Environment: Case Study of Raglan Mine
Resource
In this field study conducted on Raglan Mine's tailings storage facility (TSF), tailings oxidation rates were characterized with the oxygen consumption (OC) method. Surface tailings unfrozen...
Fire, Lichens, and Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Canada’s Boreal Shield
Resource
Threatened woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) have experienced large range recessions and population declines across much of Canada’s boreal forest in the last century and have become a...
Foestland-Peatland Hygrologic Connectivity in Water-Limited Environment: Hydraulic Gradients Often Oppose Topography
Resource
It is common to conceptualize the water table as a subdued replica of surface topography, where groundwater recharges at, and flowsfrom, topographic highs and flows to, and discharges at, topographic...
Forest Floor Protection During Drilling Pad Construction and its Benefits for Natural Regeneration of Native Boreal Forest Vegetation
Resource
I I tested forest floor protection techniques in the construction and reclamation of temporary drilling pads to restore native boreal canopy and understory cover. By covering and delineating the...
Forest Industry Investment in Tree Improvement–A Wise Business Decision or a Bottomless Pit? Answers from a New Tree Improvement Valuation Model for Alberta, Canada

Forest Inventory Maps: A Useful Tool for a Wetland Classification and Regionalisation in Quebec's Forests
Resource
Forest inventory maps can be used to quantify the area of wetland habitats and to define homogeneous regions in this regard, and therefore provide a functional tool for coarse-scale wetland management
Gains and Losses of Plant Species and Phylogenetic Diversity for a Northern High-latitude Region
Resource
We found that 368 species (24%) may lose on average > 80% of their current suitable climates (habitats), while 539 species (35%) were projected to more than double their current suitable range
Geomechanical Investigation of Post Reclamation Subsidence of Prairie Strip Mine Spoil
Resource
The post-reclamation subsidence of cast-back overburden is of interest to mining companies and regulatory agencies. Although subsidence may be of lesser concern than the prevention of soil degradation...
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...
