Brown Bear (Ursus arctos) Predation of Broad Whitefish (Coregonus nasus) in the Mackenzie Delta Region, Northwest Territories
Download2009
On 2 October 2007, we observed evidence of at least one brown bear (Ursus arctos) predating and caching broad whitefish (Coregonus nasus) at Pete’s Creek, a tributary of the Mackenzie River, Northwest Territories. While predation on whitefish by brown bears has been reported as traditional...

The boreal ecotype of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) is federally listed as Threatened due to population declines throughout its distribution. High mortality rates of neonate calves (≤ 4 weeks old) due to predation are a key demographic factor contributing to population declines...

Characterizing adaptive morphological features and resource selection of Rocky Mountain Sculpin (Cottus sp.), a species at risk in Canada
DownloadFall 2017
Freshwater biodiversity is presently one of the world’s largest conservation concerns. Both direct and indirect human activities contributing to waterway modifications, climate change, and habitat alteration are causing major declines in freshwater fish species richness and abundance. While these...

Mariana B. Nagy-Reis, Mark A. Lewis, William F. Jensen, Mark S. Boyce
Understanding the underlying mechanisms driving population demographics such as species-habitat relationships and the spatial scale in which these relationships occur is essential for developing optimal management strategies. Here we evaluated how landscape characteristics and winter severity...

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...

Differentiating the Lévy walk from a composite correlated random walk - Data
2015
Lewis, Mark A., Auger-Méthé, Marie, Plank, Michael J., Codling, Edward A., Derocher, Andrew E.
This the data associated with the manuscript entitled: Differentiating the Lévy walk from a composite correlated random walk. It is the step lengths and turning angles of two bears collared in the Hudson Bay. The data is the step length and turning angle measured at regular time intervals (every...

Disentangling the relative effects of structural complexity and substrate composition on fish habitat selection in coral reef environments
DownloadFall 2021
Identifying features of biogenic habitats (i.e. made of living plants and animals) that attract and retain resident species is a key theme in ecology with important implications for habitat conservation and restoration. Using corals (class Anthozoa, phylum Cnidaria) —a group of foundational...

Effects of hunting on the demographics, movement, and habitat selection of American black bears (Ursus americanus)
Download2008
I conducted a large-scale experiment to determine the effects of hunting on the demographics and behaviour of American black bears (Ursus americanus ). I monitored 290 bears, a subset of which were equipped with VHF and GPS radio-collars, in 2 hunted areas and an adjoining unhunted area in the...
