Effects of vegetation density, arrangement, and morphology on flow structure under ice-covered condition
Aquatic vegetation appears very often in rivers and floodplains, which significantly affects the flow structure. On the other hand, a common feature of cold regions is the presence of river ice on water surfaces. Ice cover imposes an additional…

Anthropogenic activities contribute to changes in forest cover in the shale oil and gas region of Northeastern British Columbia
The boreal forest ecosystems have been changing due to varying levels of anthropogenic land use processes such as logging, oil and gas activities, and agriculture. However, the cumulative impacts of these processes are likely to lead to a lasting…

Moose responses to anthropogenic disturbance across a range of spatial scales: Diet, habitat use, and movement
Habitat loss and climate change are two of the leading causes of the global decline of biodiversity. Declines in the abundance of moose (Alces americanus) in British Columbia, Canada, in the 2000s were hypothesized to result from an interaction…
