The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Investigating the decline of a caribou population in central British Columbia, we found that 1) recent wildfires were a stronger draw for primary ungulate prey than cutblocks, 2) most predators were associated with primary prey but had mixed responses to disturbance, and 3) caribou used cutblocks, potentially increasing their risk.

Simulated heat waves affected alpine grassland only in combination with drought.
New Phytologist, 2016 The Alpine region is warming fast, and concurrently, the frequency and intensity of climate extremes are increasing. It is currently unclear whether alpine ecosystems are sensitive or resistant to such extremes.

Mapping interactions between winter recreationists and an endangered ungulate
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Southern mountain caribou are a federally designated species at risk, with declines occurring throughout their range. This species overlaps spatially and temporally in their late‐winter habitats with heli‐skiing, an activity that relies on helicopters to transport skiers to remote mountainous locales.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.This non‐invasive methods study seeks to address challenges associated with collecting long‐term occupancy and demographic data on wolverine and Canada lynx by developing a modified camera and hair snag (C&H) monitoring system. After 5 consecutive field seasons of testing, our study suggests the system adds richness of data and underscores the utility ...
