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...

Guidelines for Exploration and Development Projects in Boreal Caribou Habitat in the Northwest Territories (Draft for Review)
Resource
The Guidelines for Exploration and Development Projects in Boreal Caribou Habitat: Northwest Territories (the NWT Boreal Caribou Guidelines) are intended for proponents of exploration and development...
Habitat Selection and Population Trends of the Torngat Mountains Caribou Herd
Project
Organization:
Project Description:We fitted 9 Argos and 26 global positioning system (GPS)-collars on 35 adult caribou (25 female, 10 male) from the declining Torngat Mountains caribou herd in northern Quebec...
Habitat Selection and Population Trends of the Torngat Mountains Caribou Herd
Resource
We fitted collars on 35 adult caribou to assess seasonal habitat selection at 2 spatial scales, current and future population trends, and interactions with the neighboring migratory caribou herd.
Harvesting Surface Vegetation Does Not Impede Self-Recovery of Sphagnum Peatlands
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...
Harvesting Surface Vegetation does not Impede Self‐Recovery of Sphagnum Peatlands
Resource
Ecosystem restoration frequently involves the reintroduction of plant material in the degraded ecosystem. When there are no plant nurseries or seeds available on the market, the plant material has to...
Human Disturbance Effects and Cumulative Habitat Loss in Endangered Migratory Caribou
Resource
A 2018 academic paper to assess the effects of human disturbance on barren-ground caribou herds. This study focuses on the Leaf River and George River herds in northern Quebec and Labrador. The paper...
Impact of Heat Advection on the Thermal Regime of Roads Built on Permafrost

Impacts of Spruce Budworm Defoliation on the Habitat of Woodland Caribou, Moose, and Their Main Predators
Resource
Forest logging has contributed to the decline of several woodland caribou populations by causing the fragmentation of mature coniferous stands. Such habitat alterations could be worsened by spruce...
Increased Nutrient Availability Speeds up Permafrost Development, While Goose Grazing Slows it Down in a Canadian High Arctic Wetland
Resource
1. It is of prime importance to understand feedbacks due to the release of carbon (C) stored in permafrost soils (permafrost-climate feedback) and direct impacts of climatic variations on permafrost...
Increasing Fire Frequency and Severity Will Increase Habitat Loss for a Boreal Forest Indicator Species
Resource
Climate change will lead to more frequent and more severe fires in some areas of boreal forests, affecting the distribution and availability of late-successional forest communities. These forest...
Insect-mediated Apparent Competition Between Mammals in a Boreal Food Web
Resource
While the important role of animal-mediated interactions in the top-down restructuring of plant communities is well documented, less is known of their ensuing repercussions at higher trophic levels...
Inuit Knowledge of Long-term Changes in a Population of Arctic Tundra Caribou
Resource
Indigenous peoples possess knowledge about wildlife that dates back many generations. Inuit observations of historical changes in a caribou population on southern Baffin Island, collected from 43...
Joint Management Proposal for Bathurst Caribou
Resource
A 2015 joint management proposal for the Bathurst caribou herd developed by the Tlicho Government and the government of the Northwest Territories. The plan covers 2016 to 2019, and recommends no...
