Loss of Connectivity Among Island-dwelling Peary Caribou Following Sea Ice Decline
Resource
Global warming threatens to reduce population connectivity for terrestrial wildlife through significant and rapid changes to sea ice. Using genetic fingerprinting, we contrasted extant connectivity in...
Novel Multilayer Network Analysis to Assess Variation in the Spatial Co-occurrences of Close Kin in Wild Caribou Populations
Resource
Abstract Understanding how individuals within populations are connected genetically and through shared space-use is critical to understanding the demographic patterns of at-risk populations. In recent...
On the Use of Mulching to Mitigate Permafrost Thaw due to Linear Disturbances in Sub-Arctic Peatlands
Resource
The presence or absence of permafrost strongly influences the hydrology and ecology of northern watersheds. Resource exploration activities are currently having profound effects on hydrological and...
Paleolimnological Assessment of Past Hydro-ecological Variation at a Shallow Hardwater Lake in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region Before Potential Onset of Industrial Development
Resource
Effective environmental monitoring requires knowledge of inherent natural variation. In the absence of pre-development monitoring of aquatic ecosystems, paleolimnological approaches have been...
Predicting Patterns of Terrestrial Lichen Biomass Recovery Following Boreal Wildfires
Resource
New allometric equations to estimate lichen biomass from field measurements of lichen cover and height; allometries were consistent among ecoprovinces, suggesting generalizability
Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan - Boreal Plain Ecozone - SK2 Central Caribou Administration Unit
Resource
The goal of the Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan is to achieve and maintain a self sustaining woodland caribou population by managing habitat availability, while allowing for continued...
Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan - Boreal Plain Ecozone: SK2 Central Caribou Administration Unit - Appendices
Resource
This appendix to the Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan Boreal Plain Ecozone (SK2 Central Caribou Administration Unit) provides an overview of the efforts taken in the SK2 Central range...
Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan - Boreal Plain Ecozone: SK2 Central Caribou Administration Unit - Overview
Resource
This document provides a two-page overview of the SK2 Central Woodland Caribou Range Plan.
Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan - Boreal Plain Ecozone: SK2 East Caribou Administration Unit - Appendices (DRAFT)
Resource
This document contains the appendices for the SK2 East Range Plan.
Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan - Boreal Plain Ecozone: SK2 East Caribou Administration Unit (DRAFT)
Resource
The SK2 East Range Plan outlines strategies to protect and ensure sustainable woodland caribou populations and continued economic development in northern Saskatchewan.
Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan - Boreal Plain Ecozone: SK2 West Caribou Administration Unit - Appendices
Resource
The SK2 West Range Plan Appendices provide area details on how range planning strategies will protect and ensure sustainable woodland caribou populations and continued economic development in northern...
Range Plan for Woodland Caribou in Saskatchewan - Boreal Plain Ecozone: SK2 West Caribou Administration Unit - Overview
Resource
This two-page document provides an overview of the SK2 West Woodland Caribou Range Plan.
Reclamation Legislation and Certification Requirements: Province of Saskatchewan
Resource
With respect to mine planning, reclamation should be recognized as an integral part of mining and therefore should be considered as one of the constraints in determining mining methods and overall...
Spatial and Temporal Variation in Forest Transpiration Across a Forested Boreal Peatland Complex
Resource
Transpiration is a globally important component of evapotranspiration. Careful upscaling of transpiration from point measurements is thus crucial for quantifying water and energy fluxes. In spatially...
Status and Conservation Management Framework for Woodland Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Saskatchewan
Resource
This document establishes a baseline for woodland caribou population status, distribution, and critical habitat in Saskatchewan through a review of the scientific literature, summary and analysis of...
Temperature, Moisture and Freeze–thaw Controls on CO2 Production in Soil Incubations From Northern Peatlands
Resource
Peat accumulation in high latitude wetlands represents a natural long-term carbon sink, resulting from the cumulative excess of growing season net ecosystem production over non-growing season (NGS)...
The Biophysical Climate Mitigation Potential of Boreal Peatlands During the Growing Season
Resource
Peatlands and forests cover large areas of the boreal biome and are critical for global climate regulation. They also regulate regional climate through heat and water vapour exchange with the...
The Hydrology of Interconnected Bog Complexes in Discontinuous Permafrost Terrains
Resource
In the zone of discontinuous permafrost, the cycling and storage of water within and between wetlands is poorly understood. The presence of intermittent permafrost bodies tends to impede and re-direct...
