Central Arctic Caribou and Petroleum Development
We synthesize findings from cooperative research on effects of petroleum development on caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) of the Central Arctic Herd (CAH). The CAH increased from about 6000 animals in 1978 to 23000 in 1992, declined to 18 000 by 1995, and again increased to 27 000 by 2000. Net calf production was consistent with changes in herd size. In the Kuparuk Development Area (KDA), west of Prudhoe Bay, abundance of calving caribou was les…
Effects of Petroleum Development on Terrain Preferences of Calving Caribou
We investigated terrain preferences of caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) in an oilfield region near Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. Under disturbance-free conditions, the distribution of calving caribou determined by aerial transect surveys was correlated with indices of terrain ruggedness based on map contours. Caribou preferred quadrats dominated by fine-textured rugged terrain, particularly when present in large clusters, and avoided quadrats with flatt…
Redistribution of Calving Caribou in Response to Oil Field Development on the Arctic Slope of Alaska
Aerial surveys were conducted annually in June 1978-87 near Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, to determine changes in the distribution of calving caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) that accompanied petroleum-related development. With construction of an oil field access road through a calving concentration area, mean caribou density (no./sq. km) decreased from 1.41 to 0.31 (P=0.05) with 1 km and increased from 1.41 to 4.53 (P=0.04) 5-6 km from the road. Concur…
Reactions of Large Groups of Caribou to a Pipeline Corridor on the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska
Two large groups of mosquito-harassed caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) were followed for 8-12 h as they repeatedly attempted to cross an elevated pipeline in the Kuparuk Development Area near Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. In 1981, 46% of a group of 917 eventually crossed beneath elevated portions of the pipeline in 26 separate attempts, 13% crossed a section of buried pipe in two attempts, 22% trotted parallel to the pipeline for 32 km and did not cross…
