| Summary: | This project used cutting-edge soundscape observations and analyses to quantify the influence of changing environmental dynamics and increasing anthropogenic activity on the behavior and phenology of migratory caribou, waterfowl, and songbird communities in Arctic-boreal Alaska and northwestern Canada. We used acoustic and camera-trap monitoring methods to evaluate wildlife responses in novel and non-invasive ways across broad spatial ranges during crucial seasons. Our study combined field observations, modeling, and analyses included (1) soundscape measurements, (2) camera-trap observations, (3) automated soundscape analyses, (4) analyses of camera-trap caribou observations, (5) high-resolution modeling of environmental variables, and (6) statistical analyses of wildlife occupancy, diversity, and phenology. This “Environmental Data” dataset package describes and includes the high-resolution environmental variables used in this study. ... |
