Governance as a Driver of Change in the Canadian Boreal Zone
Resource
The Canadian boreal forest is primarily public land, owned and managed by provincial governments on behalf of the public interest. Boreal forest governance consists of a complex patchwork of federal...
How Woodland Caribou use Post-fire Landscapes in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
To examine the effects of forest fires on woodland caribou, we collected GPS location data on five caribou ranges in northeastern Alberta.
Increasing Contributions of Peatlands to Boreal Evapotranspiration in a Warming Climate
Resource
The response of evapotranspiration (ET) to warming is of critical importance to the water and carbon cycle of the boreal biome, a mosaic of land cover types dominated by forests and peatlands. The...
Integrating Traditional and Evolutionary Knowledge in Biodiversity Conservation: A Population Level Case Study
Resource
Despite their dual importance in the assessment of endangered/threatened species, there have been few attempts to integrate traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and evolutionary biology knowledge...
