Assessing the Cumulative Effects of Environmental Change on Wildlife Harvesting Areas in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region through Spatial Analysis and Community-based Research
Resource
Arctic ecosystems are undergoing rapid environmental transformations. Climate change is affecting permafrost temperature, vegetation structure, and wildlife populations, and increasing human...
Assessment of the Barren Ground Caribou Die-off During Winter 2015-2016 Using Passive Microwave Observations
Resource
Study investigates a die-off of 50 Arctic Barren Ground caribous on Prince Charles Island (Nunavut, Canada), in the summer of 2016, using passive microwave observations.
Birth Date Determines Early Calf Survival in Migratory Caribou
Resource
Abstract The decline of most caribou ( Rangifer tarandus) populations underlines the need to understand the determinants of key demographic parameters. In migratory caribou, we have limited...

Conservation of Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) in Canada: An Uncertain Future
Resource
Caribou (Rangifer tarandus (L., 1758)) play a central role in the ecology and culture of much of Canada, where they were once the most abundant cervid. Most populations are currently declining, and...
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...
Cumulative Effects of Environmental Change on Culturally Significant Ecosystems in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region
Resource
Abstract The Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR) in the western Canadian Arctic is experiencing environmental changes that affect subsistence harvesting practices and are of concern to local...

From Diet to Hair and Blood: Empirical Estimation of Discrimination Factors for C and N Stable Isotopes in Five Terrestrial Mammals
Resource
Abstract Carbon and nitrogen stable isotope ratios are used widely to describe wildlife animal diet composition and trophic interactions. To reconstruct consumer diet, the isotopic differences between...
Improving Peary Caribou Presence Predictions in MaxEntUsing Spatialized Snow Simulations
Resource
In this article, the researchers 1) investigate whether a snow model adapted for the Antarctic (SNOWPACK) can produce snow simulations relevant to Canadian High Arctic conditions, and 2) test snow...
