Polychlorinated Dibenzodioxins, Dibenzofurans and Non-ortho Substituted Polychlorinated Biphenyls in Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) from the Canadian Arctic
Resource
The presence of contaminants in the Arctic environment has raised concerns regarding levels in wildlife and possible effects on the health of wildlife populations. In addition, contaminants in wild...
Population Dynamics of Caribou Shaped by Glacial Cycles Before the Last Glacial Maximum
Resource
Pleistocene glacial cycles influenced the diversification of high- latitude wildlife species through recurrent periods of range contraction, isolation, divergence, and expansion from refugia and...
Population Structure of Caribou in an Ice-bound Archipelago
Resource
This 2018 academic paper suggests that, based on genetics, the Baffin Island population of caribou should be treated as a separate “designatable unit” under the classification system for the Committee...
Population Trend Analysis for Boreal Caribou in SK2 Central using Non-invasive Capture-Recapture Analysis (2007 – 2019)
Resource
"A 3-year population monitoring program was put in place for a study area within SK2 Central covering 16,092 km2 using fecal DNA based capture–recapture methods to estimate population sizes and...
Reclamation by Transalta Utilities through Planned Research and Experience
Resource
TransAlta Utilities has always believed that finding solutions to reclamation problems must identify the most economical and technically feasible methods. A range of research related programs have...
Reclamation Experience: An Industrial Perspective
Resource
The concepts important to the regulation of reclaimed land have been evolving and will continue to evolve. We have gone from emphasis on "equal to or greater than productivity" to emphasis on...
Soil Handling at the Highvale Mine
Resource
The soil resources in the Highvale Mine area are predominantly thin Black Solodized Solonetzic and Gleysolic soils developed on residual bedrock of the Edmonton Formation. A significant amount of Gray...
Spatial Differences in Genetic Diversity and Northward Migration Suggest Genetic Erosion Along the Boreal Caribou Southern Range Limit and Continued Range Retraction
Resource
Study assesses changes in genetic diversity and connectivity in areas of high and low anthropogenic activity, across threatened boreal caribou populations in Ontario and Manitoba.
Spatial Familial Networks to Infer Demographic Structure of Wild Populations
Resource
Abstract In social species, reproductive success and rates of dispersal vary among individuals resulting in spatially structured populations. Network analyses of familial relationships may provide...
Synopsis Report 2018/19 Arctic Caribou Contaminant Monitoring Program
Resource
This project studies contaminant levels in caribou in the Canadian Arctic to determine if these populations remain healthy (in terms of contaminant loads), whether these important resources remain...
The Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) Genome
Resource
Paper outlines the sequencing of the genome from a male boreal caribou from Manitoba, Canada.
The Extent and Magnitude of Edge Effects on Woody Vegetation in Road-bisected Treed Peatlands in Boreal 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...
The Role of Introgression and Ecotypic Parallelism in Delineating Intraspecific Conservation Units
Resource
Abstract: Parallel evolution can occur through selection on novel mutations, standing genetic variation or adaptive introgression. Uncovering parallelism and introgressed populations can complicate...

Three Decades of Caribou Recovery Programs in Yukon: A Paradigm Shift in Wildlife Management
Resource
A relatively brief paper published by the Yukon government in 2009, it summarizes the experience of the managing five different Yukon herds (mostly non-migratory). It suggests that both harvest...
Vulnerability Analysis of the Porcupine Caribou Herd to Potential Development of the 1002 Lands in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska
Resource
A 2019 “vulnerability analysis” on the Porcupine caribou herd (PCH) assessing its vulnerability to oil and gas development in the herd’s calving grounds in Alaska. The analysis found that “...the...
