Decadal-scale oceanographic, environmental, and ecological changes have been reported in the Salish Sea, an ecologically productive inland sea in the northeast Pacific that supports the economies and cultures of millions of people. However, there are substantial data gaps related to physical water properties that make it difficult to evaluate trend...

FIPEX v10.4 is designed to decrease the time required to assess the individual and cumulative effects of river barriers to fish passage and to assess river connectivity from headwaters to outflow (i.e., longitudinal connectivity) Loss of longitudinal connectivity due to anthropogenic barriers is a global problem contributing to unprecedented biodiv...
The salmon-eating Southern Resident killer whale (SRKW) (Orcinus orca) population currently comprises only 73 individuals, and is listed as ‘endangered’ under the Species at Risk Act in Canada. Recent evidence suggests that the growth of this population may be limited by food resources, especially Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). We prese...
Marine Ecosystem Models (MEMs) provide a deeper understanding of marine ecosystem dynamics. The United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development has highlighted the need to deploy these complex mechanistic spatial-temporal models to engage policy makers and society into dialogues towards sustainably managed oceans. From our shared...
As part of the marine protected area (MPA) network planning process in the Northern
Shelf Bioregion of B.C. (NSB), the MPA technical team is reviewing 114 existing and 1
proposed marine protected areas to evaluate the degree to which each protected area
meets ecological objectives for the network.
• Because protected areas vary in their degree of p...
Water resources and transportation infrastructure such as dams and culverts provide countless socio-economic benefits; however, this infrastructure can also disconnect the movement of organisms, sediment, and water through river ecosystems. Trade-offs associated with these competing costs and benefits occur globally, with applications in barrier ad...
