Using MALDI‐FTICR Mass Spectrometry to Enhance ZooMS Identifications of Pleistocene Bone Fragments Showing Variable Collagen Preservation

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Recent advances in high‐throughput molecular analyses of collagen peptides, especially ZooMS (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry), have permitted breakthroughs in the analysis of archaeological material that is highly fragmented, a factor that hinders morphological identification.

Herd size, distribution, harvest, management issues, and research priorities relevant to caribou herds in Alaska

open access: yesRangifer, 1998
There are presently about 960 000 caribou in 32 herds in Alaska, including 4 herds shared with Yukon and Northwest Territories. Since complete population data were last published in the mid-1980s, Alaska's caribou population has doubled in size, largely ...

The Application of Autonomous Fixed‐Wing Drones in the Sub‐Antarctic Operating Beyond Visual Line of Sight to Enable Large Area, Multi‐Species Population Monitoring in a Changing Environment

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Autonomous fixed‐wing drones operating beyond visual line of sight of the pilot were used to conduct the first aerial, multi‐species baseline reference survey at the sub‐Antarctic island of South Georgia. Long‐term population monitoring in this remote, challenging environment has historically proved difficult, with terrestrial monitoring generally ...

RETRACE Project: How to Enhance Resilience to Climate Risks in Pacific and Arctic Indigenous Communities?

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Risk management has evolved to analyze risks in a systemic way, integrating local knowledge with the abstract concept of resilience, which is now an imperative for vulnerable and exposed communities. However, existing decision‐support tools are mainly focused on technical‐functional aspects and, although based on rigorous and scientific ...

Wetland habitat selection by woodland caribou as characterized using the Alberta Wetland Inventory

open access: yesRangifer, 2011
We examined habitat selection by woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in northwestern Alberta based on a wetland classification system developed for the Alberta Vegetation Inventory. Our two objectives were to describe caribou habitat use, and to

Indigenous Relational Thought and Climate Crisis Response: Rethinking Human‐Environment Relations Beyond Technocratic Governance

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is frequently framed as a technical problem of emissions, risk, finance, adaptation planning, and institutional coordination. This critical integrative review, supported by scoping‐informed searching and transparent eligibility and synthesis procedures, examines how selected Indigenous relational literatures can deepen climate ...

Transferrin variation and evolution of Alaskan reindeer and caribou, Rangifer tarandus L.

open access: yesRangifer, 1986
Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to analyse transferrin variation in wild caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) and domestic reindeer (R.t. tarandus) from Alaska. Eighteen alleles were detected in caribou and ten alleles were detected in reindeer.

Cougar (Puma concolor) predation on Northern Mountain Caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in central British Columbia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Caribou (Rangifer tarandus) populations are sympatric with Cougars (Puma concolor) in only a few areas, primarily in western Canada. Records of Cougar–Caribou interactions are limited and no published accounts describe Cougar predation on the shallow ...
