This book was released on 1997 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes and presents results from a spring/summer 1996 moose browsing survey conducted to determine the availability and utilization of winter browse in Cape Breton Highlands National Park. Observations are made regarding differences in forest structure and browsing intensity between various biotopes of the Park; the percentage utilization of available biomass by moose; the areas where moose concentrated their efforts; and the influence of moose winter browsing on the functional dynamics of Park forests.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terrestrial consumers can influence forest regeneration, but few studies have investigated the impacts of terrestrial consumers on freshwater ecosystems. I investigated the potential for cross-ecosystem effects of hyperabundant moose on stream ecosystems in the Cape Breton Highlands, Nova Scotia. I predicted that watersheds with higher moose impacts would have higher stream temperatures, total nitrogen, electrical conductivity, periphyton biomass, and macroinvertebrate abundances. I analyzed existing long-term data on 3rd and 4th order streams and conducted a field study on 1st and 2nd order streams to test for crossecosystem impacts of moose in the Cape Breton Highlands. I found evidence for moose impacts on total nitrogen and electrical conductivity. However, I found no evidence for higher stream temperatures and periphyton biomass, with limited evidence of moose impacts on macroinvertebrate abundances. This study provides insight into the effects of large ungulates within and across boreal forest ecosystems with potential implications for landscape-scale management of hyperabundant ungulates.

This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tobeatic region of western Nova Scotia is of special interest because it represents perhaps one of the last remaining indigenous moose populations on mainland Nova Scotia. Moose have persisted in this region while extirpations have occurred elsewhere. With only scattered populations of animals distributed across mainland NS, the ability of the species to persist on the mainland is of concern. Moose densities within the Tobeatic Wilderness Area and the Cobequids were determined from aerial surveys. Multivariate statistical techniques were used to develop habitat association models at three spatial scales for moose on mainland Nova Scotia. Habitat variables were extracted from a geographical information system (GIS) to provide inputs for the multiple logistic regression models. The models predicted moose presence or absence across mainland Nova Scotia. Habitat selection within the Tobeatic Wilderness area was assessed by Chi-square analysis. Available habitat was defined as the area within a 99% home range of all moose locations obtained from radio-telemetry. (Abstract shortened by UMI.).

This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part 1 of the final volume of A History of the Native People of Canada treats eastern Canada and the southern Subarctic regions of the Prairies from A.D. 500 to European contact. It examines the association of archaeological sites with the Native peoples recorded in European documents and particularly the agricultural revolution of the Iroquoian people of the Lower Great Lakes and Upper St. Lawrence River. Part 2 was never completed, as the author passed away.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: March 2007 RESPONSIBLE JURISDICTIONS Government of Nova Scotia: Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Nova Scotia Mainland Moose Recovery Team provided much of the information which is the grounding and basis for the contents of this recovery plan. [...] In 2004, the Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources brought together knowledgeable moose scientists, biologists and partners from the Maritime region, and one representative of the North American Moose Foundation to form the Nova Scotia Mainland Moose Recovery Team. [...] The robust population found there today is a result of a re-introduction of moose from Alberta in the 1940's and is a distinct population from the mainland Nova Scotia moose population. [...] Recovery actions include the following: Research: • Improve understanding of the weighting and interrelationship(s) of threats and limiting factors • Improve understanding of habitat suitability, availability and selection • Improve efforts to provide insight into the structure and genetic profile of mainland moose • Investigate the cause of death/illness of all found dead and apparent "sick" moos [...] In northern Ontario the range of the northwestern moose (Alces alces andersoni) gives way to the range of the eastern moose that inhabits regions eastward to Maine, mainland Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Quebec.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moose (Alces alces) have been re-established in much of the historic range in the northeastern United States. Recently the southern edge of the species ranges has been extended southward into southern New England and northern New York from established populations in northern New England. The southern expansion raised questions as to the ability of this northern species to cope with higher temperatures, areas densely populated by humans, and different forest types further south. In light of these recent developments, we conducted a literature search on moose in the northeastern United States and distributed a questionnaire and conducted phone interviews with biologists responsible for moose management across the region to determine the status and management of moose in New England and New York. Furthermore, in 2006 we initiated a study on the home ranges, movements, and habitat use of moose in Massachusetts. We captured and collared moose with Global Positioning System (GPS) collars to track their movements in the Commonwealth. The surveys and interviews with the state biologists revealed that moose populations appeared to be stabilizing in southern New England. However, the moose population continued to grow in northern New York. Moose populations in northern New England were managed with an annual fall harvest, but moose hunting was not allowed in southern New England or New York. Throughout the region moose vehicle collisions were a major concern (>1,000 occur each year) including several that resulted in human fatalities. The collaring study has revealed the importance of maintaining a variety of forest cover types, age classes, and wetland habitats to meet the seasonal needs of moose, including early successional habitats created by logging that appear to be important for moose. Mean home range sizes were 64.9 km2 (SE = 12.9) and 73.3 km2 (SE = 9.4), respectively, for females and males in central Massachusetts, and 164.5 km2 (SE = 62.6) for males in western Massachusetts. Moose often interacted with roads and human development on the uplands, but used less developed areas of their home ranges. This demonstrates the importance of preserving the integrity and connectivity of the forested landscape of Massachusetts.
