Effects of Mechanical Site Preparation on Microsite Availability and Growth of Planted Black Spruce in Canadian Paludified Forests
Resource
Low productivity caused by paludification in some parts of the closed black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) B.S.P) dominated boreal forest threatens the provision of ecosystem services, including wood...
Factors Affecting Abundance of Beaver Dams in Forested Landscapes

Foothills Model Forest Grizzly Bear Research Program 1999-2003 Final Report
Resource
The Foothills Model Forest Grizzly Bear Research Program was initiated in 1998 with the first year of fieldwork beginning in the spring of 1999. The impetus for undertaking this program resulted from...
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
Forestry Increases Predation Risk for Caribou
Resource
This infographic by Sunny Tseng describes the key results from a paper by Tracy McKay and Dr. Laura Finnegan. Forest harvesting changes ungulate densities, which influences caribou predation by shared...
Grizzly Bear Response to Oil and Gas Activities in Alberta
Resource
In 2010 and 2011, the Foothills Research Institute Grizzly Bear Program (FRIGBP) received funding from the Alberta Upstream Petroleum Research Fund (AUPRF) and other program partners to investigate...
Grizzly Bears and Pipelines: Response to Unique Linear Features
Resource
This report includes results from two years of research investigating grizzly bear response to oil and gas pipelines in the Kakwa region of west-central Alberta. We investigated grizzly bear habitat...
How Do You Build a Better Cutblock for Caribou?
Resource
This infographic by Heather Hinam describes the Caribou Conservation through Better Cutblock Design project by the Caribou Program run by fRI Research. The background, methods, and potential uses for...
Impacts of Climate and Catastrophic Forest Changes on Streamflow and Water Balance in a Mountainous Headwater Stream in Southern Alberta
Resource
Rivers in Southern Alberta are vulnerable to climate change because much of the river water originates as snow in the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains.
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...
Integrating Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Ecological Science: A Question of Scale
Resource
The benefits and challenges of integrating traditional ecological knowledge and scientific knowledge have led to extensive discussions over the past decades, but much work is still needed to...
Literature Review - Caribou, Fire, and Forestry
Resource
With of goal of understanding how silviculture and harvesting practices might mirror those of natural disturbances, here we summarize research describing differences in responses of caribou and...
