Central Selkirk Mountain Caribou Habitat Model  2003  Report (Hamilton & Wilson 2003): A one-year project to generate a supplemental PEM-based species habitat model, capability-suitability mapping and caribou management strategy for the entire known range of mountain caribou in the Central Selkirk Mountains. Ground sampling and capability-suitability modelling mapped caribou habitat within the Central Selkirk Mountains study area, outside of TFL 23. Four seasonal suitability and capability models and accompanying maps were produced illustrating the value of ecosystem units for caribou. Goodness-of-fit of the models was tested with telemetry point data. Results found that habitats rated high were used more than expected, based on their availability within the study area, for each of the 4 seasons. Habitats rated low were used less than expected and moderate habitats were used in proportion to their availability. A zonation strategy based on the results of this and previous projects was developed.  wsi_5585_rpt_2003-2004HabitatModel.pdf (713 KB)
