Moose and deer behaviour in snow in Fundy National Park, New Brunswick / by John P. Kelsall and William Prescott.: R65-8/15E-PDF

"Studies of snow morphology in relation to the behaviour of moose and deer in Fundy National Park were carried out during three winters, 1963 to 1966. Studies were centered around 10 snow stations, at varied elevations from sea level to over 350 meters. At each, snow measurements were taken twice monthly during winter, both under forest canopies and in adjacent open areas. Quantative description of snow profiles included depth, densities, hardnesses, temperatures, and description of snow crystal form and size. At each station, records were kept of the behaviour of moose and deer, both through direct observation and through scrutiny of tracks and measurement of track depths"--Abstract.
