Revista Chilena de Historia Natural, 2007 Castor canadensis es considerado un ingeniero ecosistémico arquetípico, ya que altera el estado de factores bióticos y abióticos, mediante interacciones no tróficas, modificando sustancialmente los ecosistemas que habita.

The abundance and distribution of beavers (Castor canadensis) in Québec, Canada / [PDF]
, 2006 The importance of spatial variation in abundance for the assessment of climate change impacts was examined using the North American beaver ( Castor canadensis) in Quebec as a model species.

North American Beaver (Castor canadensis) gut mycobiome [PDF]
The North American Beaver (Castor canadensis) is a semi-aquatic, hindgut-fermenting rodent that follows a tree bark-based diet and shows long feed retention time (14-40 hours).

Impacts of Castor canadensis dams on water quality, stream morphology, and tree species with management implications. [PDF]
, 1991 Another, and more familiar, species can cause even greater ecological damages. These damages can persist for centuries even after the species has vacated the community. The American beaver, Castor canadensis, causes these damages.

Foraging habits of Castor canadensis: Importance of girth, species and distance from shore of attacked trees. [PDF]
, 1991 We chose a large beaver dam in Cheboygan County, Michigan to study foraging habits of Castor canadensis. Foraging models suggest that beavers prefer smaller trees at greater distances from shore and the smaller trees within preferred species. We tested

A study of preferential prey selection in Castor canadensis. [PDF]
, 1997 The focus of this study was to investigate feeding preference of Castor canadensis with respect to species, number of trees foraged relative to the distance from shore, and the girth of foraged trees relative to their distance from shore.

Foraging preferences of Castor canadensis: tree species, size, and location. [PDF]
, 2000 Castor canadensis (beaver) is an excellent animal model for studying optimal foraging theories. The beaver attacks woody plants for both a source of food and building material for its dam and lodge.

Optimal foraging of beaver (Castor canadensis) in northern lower Michigan. [PDF]
, 1994 An energy-maximizing central place model of optimal foraging predicts that animals will maximize their food energy intake per unit foraging time. We studied the beaver (Castor canadensis) in northern lower Michigan to test predictions of this model ...
