Ciarniello, L. M., Heard, D. C., Boyce, M. S., Seip, D. R.
The purpose of our study is to show how ecologists' interpretation of habitat selection by grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) is altered by the scale of observation and also how management questions would be best addressed using predetermined scales of analysis. Using resource selection functions (RSF)...

While many studies have evaluated wildlife passage effectiveness, few have explored how accurately passage activity can be modelled. I created a habitat suitability index (HSI) model for American mink (Neovison vison) using Geographic Information Systems with 17 wildlife passages located in Quebe...

Influence of subhumid climate and water table depth on groundwater recharge in shallow outwash aquifers
Download2008
Smerdon, B.D., Mendoza, C.A., Devito, K.J.
[1] Hypothetical one-dimensional models of unsaturated flow were used to estimate the probability of groundwater recharge to shallow, glacial outwash aquifers. Simulations were supported by field data, previous three-dimensional modeling, and cross-sectional models of water table response to...

Interannual variability in trophic status of shallow lakes on the boreal Plain: Is there a climate signal?
Download2008
Devito, K.J., Bayley, S.E., Creed, I.F., Sass, G.Z.
We explored relations between climate and trophic status of shallow lakes (lake area > 5 ha, mean depth < 3.2 m) located on the subhumid western Boreal Plain of Canada. Correlation and regression analyses were used to assess the association between indicators of climate and satellite-based...

Linking occurrence and fitness to persistence: habitat-based approach for endangered greater sage-grouse
Download2007
Detailed empirical models predicting both species occurrence and fitness across a landscape are necessary to understand processes related to population persistence. Failure to consider both occurrence and fitness may result in incorrect assessments of habitat importance leading to inappropriate...

De-Camino-Beck, T., Lewis, M.A.
Understanding the relationship between life-history patterns and population growth is central to demographic studies. Here we derive a new method for calculating the timing of reproductive output, from which the generation time and its variance can also be calculated. The method is based on the...

Hurd, T.E., Kloppers, E.L., St. Clair, C.C.
Wildlife habituation near urban centers can disrupt natural ecological processes, destroy habitat, and threaten public safety. Consequently, management of habituated animals is typically invasive and often includes translocation of these animals to remote areas and sometimes even their...
