1. INTRODUCTION

This document contains a listing of wildlife research and projects ongoing in Alberta.
This document, although in no way a complete listing of all ongoing wildlife projects in Alberta,
may provide information to identify research gaps and to promote greater awareness of the
number of individuals and agencies conducting wildlife projects. A mailout was produced and
sent to wildlife professionals throughout Alberta. Development of such a document will be a
valuable information and networking tool for researchers and wildlife managers in Alberta. A
listing of names, phone numbers and addresses also has been added to facilitated in
communication, coordination and information transfer among people working within the wildlife
field throughout Alberta.

The objective of this document is to provide an up to date summary of wildlife activities
ongoing in Alberta. Projects covered in this report include the continuum from invertebrate to
vertebrate species. In addition, some habitat projects were included as this dealt directly or
indirectly with wildlife. Studies have been organized taxonomic ally. Species, or species groups,
within the Orders are organized alphabetically to facilitate searching for studies. Projects that
cover more than one order of animals (such as a biodiversity study) are grouped at the end of the
report.

It is the goal to keep this document current. An updated version will be produced in 1995.
If your study is not included please fill out the Project Form at the end of the document and mail
it to the address included on the form.

Title

OXYGEN REQUIREMENTS OF NORTHERN RIVER BASIN STUDY FISH

To provide criteria tor assessing the impact of reduced levels of dissolved oxygen upon the survival
and biological state of selected nsh species residing in the NRBS Study Area. In 1993/94 laboratory
studies were conducted to determine the oxygen requirements of mountain whitefish and bull trout
eggs and embryos. In 1994/95, the biological responses to be evaluated wiH be the processes of
gortadal development and maturation of adult burbot and goldeye, measured at realistic water
temperatures (2-3°C). The study will focus on those levels of dissolved oxygen (approximately 6.0
mg/L) present during the penod of ice-cover virhen hypoxic conditions are most severe.

FISHES OF ALBERTA

Synthesis of data on biological, taxonomic and biogeographic stucies of Alberta fishes.

MONITORING SEASONAL MOVEMENTS OF LAKE STURGEON (ACIPENSER FULVESCENS)
IN THE NORTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER USING RADIO TELEMETRY TECHNIQUES
Regular monitoring of sturgeon bearing low frequency external radio transmitters to locate cntical
overwintering habitat. Monitoring spring migration patterns of sturgeon to locate spavining areas

LAKE STURGEON {ACIPENSER FUL VESCENS) IN THE NORTH SASKATCHEWAN RIVER.
ALBERTA.

CoBection of basic life history data, i.e. fork and total length, round length, ageing structure. Calculate
population estimates, monitor migration trends.

Lake Trcxit Habitat Modelling for Lake Minnewanka, Banff.

Using bathymetnc modelling within PC ARCINFO GIS to assess whether TransAlta's manipulation
of the water regime of the lal^ is affecting the lake trout population.

LESSER SLAVE LAKE HABITAT MAPPING

To identify and map critical spawning areas. This will help determine the potential for conflicts
between shoreline development and habitat.

SOUTH TWO LAKES

To enhance the spawning habitat in the northeast inlet of South Two Lakes.

MUSREAU LAKE ENHANCEMENT

To maximize production in the stocked rainbow trout fishery by reduang predator fish species
populations by selective removal strategies; enhancing spawning habitat in the west inlet creek

MUSREAU LAKE FISHERY

Test netting to gather population data. Longlining to control populations of burbot Inspected habitat
spawning potential of inlet

IMPROVED LAKE AERATION STRATEGIES FOR ALBERTA

The objective of the field component is to compare the biological effectiveness and oost-effiaency of
three alternative lake aeration methods used to mitigate fish winterkill. Those methods are
compressed air injection, mechanical surface aeration, and pump and cascade aeration.

The laboratory work seeks to determine whether rainbow trout , brown trout, brook trout, and Arctic
grayling differ in their ability to withstand environmental hypoxia at low temperatures. This work will
help indicate the relative suitability of the various salmonid gamefish species tor stocking in lakes
susceptible to oxygen depletion during winter.

PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT-STOCKED LAKE MANAGEMENT

To encourage and ccxsrdinate the use of non-government agencies (ie. Fish and Game Clubs and
local interest groups) and to assist in the management of Ic^ waterbodies in which they may have
special interest (particularly stocked lakes).

Title

Survey of forest-dwelling raptors in the ALPAC FMA

With this project we are attempting to determine the spedes composition and abundance of raptonal
birds in mixed-wood boreal forests for north-central Alberta. We are attemptir>g to determine habitat
requirements of forest dwelling species "before-cuf and “after-cuf surveys should allow us to
determine effects of current forestry practices on these birds.

PIGEON CONTROL IN AN URBAN ENVIRONMENT

SHARP-TAILED GROUSE HABITAT PROGRAM

Development and implementation of a program directed at habitat losses and degradation that has
impacted sharp-tailed grouse populations.

CHANGES IN BIRD ABUNDANCE THROUGHOUT FOREST SUCCESSION

Measured bird abundance and vegetation characteristics in 3 forest ages (young, mature, and old).

CONNECTED RESERVE SYSTEMS FOR THE CONSERVATION OF SONGBIRDS IN THE
BOREAL MIXEDWOOD FOREST

Investigates comparative value of forest remnants connected by riparian buffers vs remnants
completely isolated (both by clearcut). Study in community level. Also investigates possibility that
buffers are movement comdors.

THE EFFECT OF FOREST FRAGMENTATION ON BOREAL BIRDS

An experimental fragmentation study where the bird communities of 1 , 1 0, 40, and 1 00 ha forest
fragments, each replicated 3 times, are compared to similar sized controls within continuous forest.
Presence/absence, relative abundance, territory size and configuration and reproductive productivity
are all being examined.

THE EFFECT OF LANDSCAPE MATRIX ON BREEDING BIRD COMMUNITIES

Bird communities in dd aspen -dominated forest are compared with those in recent, ac^acent
clear-cut and 10-year old second-growth aspen to assess the role of harvesting-indued changes in
habitat juxtaposition on bird community dynamics.

BROAD-SCALE PATTERN IN BIRD DIVERSITY IN NORTHERN ALBERTA

Assessment of the predictive capability of forest inventory data for explaining patterns in the Alberta
bieedng bird data. Spatial comparison of data with finer-scale information from studies in the Calling
Lake area

NATURALLY-ISOLATED ASPEN STANDS AND HABITAT CONSERVATION

A study of stands of older, aspen -dominated forest sunounded on all sides by black spruce. Not only
are these areas interestirtg ecologically, but because they are operatiorrally urrdesirable, they are
candidate habitat reserves, and thus it is important to assess their conservation potential.

UNMIXING THE MIXEDWOOD: PROBLEMS WITH MANAGING ALBERTA’S BOREAL FOREST

Exploration of the implications of division of the mixedwood landbase, for coniferous sawlog
production and dedauous puipwood production, from a wildlife perspective. Starrds containing from
0-100% white spruce sampled arxi AVI classification compared to data from vegetation plots. The
research is aimed at documenting patterns in avain communities across this compositional gradient

LAND BIRD MIGRATION MONITORING

Bird banding and census taking to estimate spring and fall migration numbers of landbirds.

PILEATED WOODPECKER HABITAT ECOLOGY IN BOREAL FORESTS

Characterize year-around pileated woodpecker habitat ecology, describing nest and roost trees,
foraging substrates, stand-level habitat use, home range size, survival, and reproductive success. To
test a habitat model to be used to predict habitat suitability tor pileated wcxxlpeckers.

WINTER HABITAT ECOLOGY OF BOREAL FOREST WOODPECKERS

Habitat use (stands and trees) of foraging woodpeckers in winter. Direct observation of birds to start,
may be followed with a telemetry program.

SUMMER HABITAT USE OF SIX WOODPECKER SPECIES IN BOREAL FORESTS

Active nests will be located and habitat characteristics of nest tree and area surrounding the nest
measured. The same information will bo obtained for foraging sites. The degree to vwhich resource
partitioning among the six woodpecker species in nesting and foraging habitat requirements \will be
evaluated. A habitat suitability index model for threo-toedfand hairy woodpeckers will be developed
and validated.
