Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report examines the fire history of the Caribou Range Subdistrict, Northwest Territories, south of the tree line, by analyzing fire statistics complied by the Forest Service, Northern Affairs Program, Department of Indian Affairs & Northern Development. The area studied covers 116,778 square kilometres and encompasses the Territories portion of the Beverly caribou herd's winter range. The area was divided into two blocks, separated by 108 degrees west longitude, in order to compare annual burn rates for eastern & western parts of the winter range. Results are presented & discussed with regard to number of fires, area burned, annual burn rate, and cumulative area burned for 1966 to 1982. Limitations of the data, the acceptability of annual burn rates, and fire protection issues are discussed.

Book excerpt: This report consists of a series of conclusions and recommendations concerning the winter ecology of barren- ground caribou and effects of fire on the winter range of the Beverly herd, mainly in the Northwest Territories. The conclusions are accompanied by summaries of supporting data from other reports and explanatory remarks. Conclusions 1-17 provide background information on winter ecology of caribou, with a focus on the effects of burns; topics include the adequacy of winter range for the herd in the 1980s, influences of burns on caribou movement and distribution, caribou diet, effect of snow on caribou movement, and effect of burns on caribou forage (notably lichens). Conclusions 18-33 consider priorities for fire management and conclusions 34-39 identify information and research needs.

Book excerpt: Reports measurements of the cover and biomass of surface vegetation at 197 sites located on the winter range of the Beverly herd of barren-ground caribou, with the primary objective of exploring the relationship between abundance of caribou forages and time since fire, between those two factors and indices of caribou use, and between plant cover and biomass. Both lichens and vascular plants were examined in paired sites located across distinct burn lines. Pellets of caribou, moose, hare, and ptarmigan or grouse were counted in transects at sample sites to obtain information on relative use of forests of various ages by caribou and other herbivores. In addition, data were obtained on the characteristics of the forest canopy with time since fire and possible relationships to forage biomass were investigated.

Book excerpt: This report details reproductive processes in barren-ground caribou and how they are influenced by variables that reflect the physical condition of caribou. Results presented are part of a study conducted 1980-87 on effects of fire on winter range of the Beverly herd, and in which samples were obtained from 856 females in the herd. Variables studied include body weight, back fat depth, kidney fat, femur length and marrow fat content, mandibular water, antler weight, various condition indices, and number of warble fly larvae. Relationships between fecundity and condition variables were examined in four ways: relationships between means of condition variables and fecundity in samples for females older than 4 years, and for females aged 3.5-4 and 2.5-3 years; statistical comparisons of condition variable means for pregnant and non-pregnant females in seven age classes; examination of frequency distributions of condition variables at intervals through tier ranges in pregnant and non-pregnant females of breeding age; and pregnancy rates of females at intervals through the range of each condition variable.
