Assessing the Influence of In Situ Industrial Development on Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) Movement in the Lower Athabasca Planning Region of Alberta. 2012 Final Report
Resource
With few exceptions, permeability across in situ developments was the main factor affecting caribou movement. Relationship was non-linear, suggesting a minimum threshold of permeability is needed
Assessing the Influence of Industrial Development on Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) in the Lower Athabasca Planning Region of Alberta: 2011 Final Report
Resource
At current levels of industrial development, pipelines and linear features have a very small negative effect on caribou populations compared to the high levels of predation.
Determining Sustainable Levels of Cumulative Effects for Boreal Caribou
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...
Efficient Monitoring of Wildlife Responses to Seismic Line Restoration in the Algar Habitat Restoration Program
Resource
This project has clearly demonstrated the utility of camera trap surveys for monitoring restoration effectiveness in boreal environments. The cameras facilitated the collection of longitudinal data on...
Experimental Design for Estimating White-Tailed Deer Occupancy, Density, and Habitat Selection in Alberta’s Boreal Forest
Resource
In this year we analyzed the study landscape using GIS, reclassified AVI data into deer habitat categories, and created the experimental design for sampling deer occupancy using remote cameras. We...
Predicting the Cumulative Effects of Human Development on Biodiversity in Northeastern Alberta
Resource
We used information from the Alberta Biodiversity Monitoring Institute (ABMI) on birds, plants, human footprint, and vegetation, plus information from Dr. Bayne on birds, to test a new method for...
The Alberta Boreal Deer Project
Project
Contact
Alberta’s woodland caribou populations are declining, and wolf predation is considered a primary cause (Wittmer et al. 2005). Predation increases where seismic line density is high (ASRD 2010), so...
The Alberta Boreal Deer Project: 2013 Report to PTAC
Resource
Woodland caribou are declining in Alberta’s northeast, and increased predation following elevated wolf densities is implicated. Wolf numbers are increasing in part due to white-tailed deer, which...
The Alberta Boreal Deer Project: Final Report
Resource
White-tailed deer expansion in the boreal forest is due to an interaction between less severe winters following climate change, and a substantial forage subsidy provided by widespread anthropogenic features
Video - Caribou Conservation Project
