Dall sheep (Ovis dalli dalli), grizzly bear (Ursus arctos) and wolf (Canis lupus) interactions in the Northern Richardson Mountains, Canada
DownloadFall 2012
Lambert Koizumi, Catherine M S
Assessing the impact of predators on a prey population is inherently challenging, a fortiori in remote ecosystems. With this thesis, I studied the interactions between a recently declining Dall sheep (Ovis dalli dalli) population and two predators: grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) and wolves (Canis...

Effects of retrogressive thaw slumping on particulate organic carbon dynamics in the Northwest Territories, Canada
DownloadSpring 2022
Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of thermokarst and accelerating the delivery of terrestrial organic material from previously sequestered sources to aquatic systems, where it is subject to further biochemical alteration. Rapid climate change in the glacially conditioned...

Horns and hotspots: detecting change in mountain sheep populations over large spatiotemporal scales
DownloadSpring 2020
Long-term data is essential for addressing questions about how populations change over time in response to environmental variability, and natural and anthropogenic disturbance. Two species of mountain sheep (Ovis spp.) in Canada have been monitored over several decades and provided the data...

Intrapopulation variability in wolf diet revealed using a combined stable isotope and fatty acid approach
DownloadSpring 2018
Naturally occurring stable isotope ratios and fatty acids are two types of chemical biomarkers frequently used to quantitatively estimate consumer diets. Stable isotope values in animal tissues and diets have been evaluated using Bayesian mixing models to provide dietary estimates of consumers in...
