Responses in butterflies to loss and fragmentation of boreal forests from in situ oil sands
DownloadSpring 2019
Anthropogenic loss and fragmentation of habitat are a threat to biodiversity, while increasing demands for energy have made the provision of fossil fuels an important source of disturbance to habitats around the globe. In Alberta, Canada, the extraction of a 142,000 km2 oil sands reserve is...

Short-Term Effects of Timber Harvest on Abundance, Territory Characteristics, and Pairing Success of Ovenbirds in Riparian Buffer Strips
Download2000
Hannon, Susan, J., Lambert, J. Daniel
In managed forests, riparian buffer strips typically are maintained to protect water quality. If properly designed, buffer strips also may act as wildlife reserves. However, forest managers have lacked the information to develop standards for buffer strips to maximize benefits for wildlife...

Snowfall, travel speed, and seismic lines: The effects of snow conditions on wolf movement paths in boreal Alberta
DownloadSpring 2016
In the winter, snow can present a major challenge to large mammals by impeding locomotion, limiting food availability, and imposing additional energetic costs during travel. This thesis examines the effects of snow conditions on the fine-scale movement patterns of grey wolves (Canis lupus) in a...

Soil Mesostigmata (Arachnida: Parasitiformes) in boreal forests of Alberta: diversity and utility as indicators of disturbance
DownloadSpring 2018
Soils provide numerous ecosystem services, including provision of nutrients for plants, sequestration of greenhouse gases, and serving as habitat for soil animals. Soil animal diversity is immense, and many undescribed taxa still remain. One prominent group that inhabits soils is mites...

Mercer, G., St. Clair, C. C., Whittington, J.
Increasing levels of human activity in mountainous areas have high potential to inhibit animal movement across and among valleys. We examined how wolves respond to roads, trails, and other developments. We recorded the movements of two wolf packs for two winters by following their tracks in the...
