A Financial Analysis of Using Improved Planting Stock of White Spruce and Lodgepole Pine in Alberta, Canada: Genomic Selection Versus Traditional Breeding
Resource
Genomics-assisted tree breeding (GATB) is an emerging biotechnology method that has the potential to produce improved planting stock in selected traits, such as greater volume or higher wood quality...
A Framework to Identify Priority Wetland Habitats and Movement Corridors for Urban Amphibian Conservation
Resource
Cities worldwide are expanding in area and human population, posing multiple challenges to amphibian populations, including habitat loss from removal of wetlands and terrestrial upland habitat...
A Stochastic Modelling Framework to Accommodate the Inter-annual Variability of Habitat Conditions for Peary Caribou (Rangifer tarandus pearyi) Populations
Resource
Study aiming to characterize year-to-year variability of Peary caribou habitat conditions across the Canadian Arctic Archipelago from 2000 to 2013.
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...
Behavioral “bycatch” from Camera Trap Surveys Yields Insights on Prey Responses to Human-mediated Predation Risk
Resource
This study used camera trap data to test predictions about predator-sensitive behavior in three ungulate species (caribou Rangifer tarandus; white-tailed deer, Odocoileus virginianus; moose, Alces...
Behaviour is More Important Than Thermal Performance for an Arctic Host–parasite System Under Climate Change
Resource
An academic paper reporting on combined experimentation and modeling to try to assess the effects of climate change on a common caribou/reindeer gut parasite.
Boreal Caribou Can Coexist with Natural but Not Industrial Disturbances
Resource
Abstract: For species at risk, it is important that demographic models be consistent with our most recent knowledge because alternate model versions can have differing predictions for wildlife and...
Braiding Indigenous Rights and Endangered Species Law
Resource
Endangered species laws effectively prevent species extinction but fall short in restoring abundance for culturally important species. Legal agreements between Indigenous peoples and countries...
Braiding Indigenous Rights and Endangered Species Law for Meaningful Species Recovery - Infographic
Resource
A new Science paper co-produced by Indigenous and Western authors highlights how Indigenous rights can pick up where endangered species laws fall short in recovering species to culturally-meaningful...
Characterizations of Anthropogenic Disturbance Patterns in the Mixedwood Boreal Forest of Alberta, Canada
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...
Climate-informed Forecasts Reveal Dramatic Local Habitat Shifts and Population Uncertainty for Northern Boreal Caribou
Resource
Most research on boreal populations of Woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou) has been conducted in areas of high anthropogenic disturbance. However, a large portion of the species’ range...
Close Encounters of the Burned Kind: Spatiotemporal Effects of Fire on Habitat Selection Strategies of Woodland Caribou (Rangifer Tarandus Caribou) During Winter
Resource
Forest fire is the primary natural disturbance process influencing the distribution and abundance of terrestrial lichens across ranges of woodland caribou ( Rangifer tarandus caribou), including the...
Community-level Modelling of Boreal Forest Mammal Distribution in an Oil Sands Landscape
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...
Comparative Prevalence and Intensity of Endoparasites in a Dynamic Boreal Ungulate Community
Resource
Surveillance of endoparasites at the host community level is rarely reported for ungulates. Yet, changes in the composition and abundance of species in ungulate assemblages, coupled with environmental...
Creative Convergence: Exploring Biocultural Diversity Through Art
Project
Contact
This project demonstrates how visual art can be used in combination with scientific and social science methods to examine the biocultural landscape of the Sahtú region of the Northwest Territories...
Creative Convergence: Exploring Biocultural Diversity Through Art
Resource
Demonstration of how visual art can be used in combination with scientific and social science methods to examine the biocultural landscape of the Sahtú region of the Northwest Territories, Canada.
Cumulative Effects and Boreal Woodland Caribou: How Bow-Tie Risk Analysis Addresses a Critical Issue in Canada's Forested Landscapes
Resource
Boreal caribou (Woodland Caribou, boreal population; Rangifer tarandus caribou) is a prominent mammal at the heart of a decades-long conflict between a growing resource sector and the associated risks...
