Proportion (%) of Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG) collared caribou wintering south of the Continental Divide in February–March 2001–2019 (Table 1; [66,67,68,69,70]; black filled circles, left y-axis). Snow depth averages (cm) for the September–December period over the range of GPS-collared animals 2014/15–2019/20 (i.e., the area occupied by the animals prior to fall migration) north of the Continental Divide (blue triangles, right y-axis). There is a statistically significant correlation between the average fall snow depth and the winter location (Pearson’s correlation coefficient, r = 0.59, p = 0.008)
