Climate change adaptation in the ski industry
Climate change and Quebec's ski industry
The Impact of CO2 - Induced Warming on Downhill Skiing in the Laurentians
Using the two climatic change scenarios selected by the Canadian Climate Centre, an attempt has been made, using snowcover suitability percentiles, to estimate the resilience and sensitivity of downhill skiing in the Lower Laurentians to the suggested changes in temperature and precipitation. The scenarios suggest an average winter increase in the range of 0 to 16 percent for precipitation and 7.6 to 9.3° F (4.2 to 5.2° C) for temperature. These …
Climate change and the distribution of climatic resources for tourism in North America
Tourism is a major sector of the global economy, and it is strongly influenced by climate. At some travel destinations, climate represents the natural resource on which the tourism industry is predicated. Global climate change has the potential to alter the distribution of climate assets among tourism destinations, with implications for tourism seasonality, demand and travel patterns. Changes in the length and quality of the tourism season have c…

Purposeful Weather Modification Activities in Canada: Responses to an Environmental Technique
T he last decade has witnessed a growing awareness and concern for man‐environment interactions, particularly western man's adopted role as master over natural processes. Belief in the need to protect the sanctity of the life‐support system has promoted a considerable body of legislation to that end. Not only has there been innovation in terms of the content of legislation, e.g., emission controls, but also innovation in the intent of legislation…
