Book Seasonal Movements  Habitat Use and Winter Feeding Ecology of Woodland Caribou in West central British Columbia

Download or read book Seasonal Movements Habitat Use and Winter Feeding Ecology of Woodland Caribou in West central British Columbia written by Deborah Bernadette Cichowski and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The West-Central BC Caribou Research Project was set up to investigate potential effects of logging on caribou in the Tweedsmuir-Entiako and Itcha-Ilgachuz-Rainbow areas. The original studies were expanded to include more intensive investigations of winter range and population parameters. The objectives of the project were to determine seasonal movements, habitat use and food habits of caribou in these areas, especially during winter so that logging guidelines compatible with caribou winter habitat use could be developed; and to determine population size, calf production, and calf and adult survival, so that current population status and limiting factors could be determined. This report summarizes results on caribou seasonal movements, habitat use and food habits. The report discusses methods for capture and marking, seasonal movements and habitat use, snow measurements, winter feeding ecology and fecal analyses. Results and discussion are also provided for these as well as for winter forest cover type use.

  • Author : Morten Tryland
  • Publisher : CRC Press
  • Release : 2018-11-09
  • ISBN : 0429952430
  • Pages : 534 pages

Download or read book Reindeer and Caribou written by Morten Tryland and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-11-09 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive presentation of health and diseases in reindeer and caribou, or just Rangifer, a key Circumarctic species with broad social and ecological value. It is an essential reference for anyone interested in the biology and health of wild or semi-domesticated reindeer and caribou, and is more broadly relevant for those with interests in other species of free-ranging and captive cervids. Beginning with a general introduction to Rangifer as a species, it then focuses on Rangifer "health" as a concept and describes the determinants of health at an individual and population level. Chapters cover a range of topics from nutrition and feeding to stress, non-infectious and infectious diseases, meat hygiene, capture and restraint, diagnosis and treatment of health issues, and finally, potential impacts of climate change on health of Rangifer. Reindeer and Caribou: Health and Disease compiles extensive research and experience-based information on issues ranging from drug doses for chemical immobilization, blood chemistry values, and raising an orphaned calf. In addition, it contains hundreds of high quality colour illustrations that contribute to its value as a diagnostic resource for recognizing various parasites, pathogens and signs of disease, both in live and dead animals. Each chapter is followed by a comprehensive list of references and a list of contact information for all the contributors, identifying world experts in the different areas of health for this circumpolar and fascinating species. This book is compulsory reading and an indispensable resource for anyone dealing with health in reindeer and caribou, including veterinarians, wildlife biologists and managers, reindeer herders/game ranchers, zoological husbandry personnel, and students with wildlife health.

Book Caribou Habitat Use in the Chelaslie River Migration Corridor and Recommendations for Management

Download or read book Caribou Habitat Use in the Chelaslie River Migration Corridor and Recommendations for Management written by J. D. Steventon and published by B.C. Ministry of Forests, Forestry Division Services Branch, Production Resources. This book was released on 1996 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes a project that intended to determine the relative importance of the Chelaslie River study area to caribou (Rangifer tarandus), to determine whether habitats exist in the area which are preferentially used by the caribou, and to provide habitat management recommendations. The 87,000-hectare study area is located south of Ootsa Lake and north of Tetachuck Lake, east of Tweedsmuir Provincial Park in British Columbia. The area was selected to be larger than a previously defined caribou migration corridor in order to incorporate all observed locations of caribou, which were monitored by radio tracking from spring 1993 to spring 1995. Results presented include degree of use of the migration corridor, and habitat selection by season and within subzones of the area.

  • ISBN : 9780756707361
  • Pages : 60 pages

Download or read book Endangered Species written by Ned Smith and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 1999-11 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last remaining woodland caribou (WC) pop. in the U.S. has inhabited the southern Selkirk Mountains (SSM), located in NE Wash., N Idaho, and SE Brit. Columbia (BC). By the early 1980s, this pop. had dwindled to about 30. In 1983, the SSM pop. of WC was granted emergency protection under the Endangered Species Act. Fed. and state agencies in the U.S. and in BC have participated in a coop. program to recover the WC. This report provides info. on: the amount and source of funds expended on the WC recovery program (RP); the results of the RP, incl. the outcome of efforts to augment the pop.; and the impact of the RP efforts on land use.

Book Expert Knowledge and Its Application in Landscape Ecology

Download or read book Expert Knowledge and Its Application in Landscape Ecology written by Ajith H. Perera and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-21 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Typically, landscape ecologists use empirical observations to conduct research and devise solutions for applied problems in conservation and management. In some instances, they rely on advice and input of experienced professionals in both developing and applying knowledge. Given the wealth of expert knowledge and the risks of its informal and implicit applications in landscape ecology, it is necessary to formally recognize and characterize expert knowledge and bring rigor to methods for its applications. In this context, the broad goal of this book is to introduce the concept of expert knowledge and examine its role in landscape ecological applications. We plan to do so in three steps: First we introduce the topic to landscape ecologists, explore salient characteristics of experts and expert knowledge, and describe methods used in capturing and formalizing that knowledge. Second, we present examples of research in landscape ecology from a variety of ecosystems and geographic locations that formally incorporate expert knowledge. These case studies address a range of topics that will interest landscape ecologists and other resource management and conservation professionals including the specific roles of expert knowledge in developing, testing, parameterizing, and applying models; estimating the uncertainty in expert knowledge; developing methods of formalizing and incorporating expert knowledge; and using expert knowledge as competing models and a source of alternate hypotheses. Third, we synthesize the state of knowledge on this topic and critically examine the advantages and disadvantages of incorporating expert knowledge in landscape ecological applications. The disciplinary subject areas we address are broad and cover much of the scope of contemporary landscape ecology, including broad-scale forest management and conservation, quantifying forest disturbances and succession, conservation of habitats for a range of avian and mammal species, vulnerability and conservation of marine ecosystems, and the spread and impacts of invasive plants. This text incorporates the collective experience and knowledge of over 35 researchers in landscape ecology representing a diverse range of disciplinary subject areas and geographic locations. Through this text, we will catalyze further thought and investigations on expert knowledge among the target readership of researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in landscape ecology.
