MARC recordSea-ice crossings by caribou in the south-central Canadian Arctic Archipelago and their ecological importance / Frank L. Miller, Samuel J. Barry, Wendy J. Calvert.
| Title: | Sea-ice crossings by caribou in the south-central Canadian Arctic Archipelago and their ecological importance / Frank L. Miller, Samuel J. Barry, Wendy J. Calvert. |
| Author(s): | Miller, Frank L. Barry, Samuel J. Calvert, Wendy J. |
| Date: | 2005. |
| In: | Rangifer. (2005.), Special issue No. 16 (2005) |
| Abstract: | Investigates whether caribou at origin of sea-ice crossing site could see land on opposite side of potential terminus, by measuring straight-line distance from where caribou first come onto the ice (origin) to first possible landfall. Finds potential termini to be geodetically visible to caribou from elevated terrain from near 96% of origins of the 73 sea-ice crossing sites and still visible at sea-level at the origins on 68%. Notes usefulness of patterns of sea-ice crossings in understanding caribou population dynamics. |
