Supporting frontline workers in the biodiversity crisis by empowering and enabling practitioners to embrace conservation evidence
Action research to improve water quality in Canada ’ s Rideau Canal
The historic Rideau Canal, spanning 200 km between the Canadian cities of Ottawa and Kingston, is a world heritage site and recreational waterway. The waterway presents a governance challenge, with multiple jurisdictions and agencies responsible for its management, making it difficult to establish a common vision to address environmental issues. Local stakeholders are concerned about toxic algal blooms in the downstream section of the Canal (the …
Emerging threats and persistent conservation challenges for freshwater biodiversity
In the 12 years since Dudgeon et al . (2006) reviewed major pressures on freshwater ecosystems, the biodiversity crisis in the world's lakes, reservoirs, rivers, streams and wetlands has deepened. While lakes, reservoirs and rivers cover only 2.3% of the Earth's surface, these ecosystems host at least 9.5% of the Earth's described animal species. Furthermore, using the World Wide Fund for Nature's Living Planet Index, freshwater population declin…
Determinants of fire activity during the last 3500 yr at a wildland—urban interface, Alberta, Canada
Long-term records of wildfires and their controlling factors are important sources of information for informing land management practices. Here, dendrochronology and lake sediment analyses are used to develop a 3500-yr fire and vegetation history for a montane forest in Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. The tree-ring record (AD 1771-2012) indicates that this region historically experienced a mixed-severity fire regime, and that effective fir…

A late Quaternary paleotemperature record from Hanging Lake, northern Yukon Territory, eastern Beringia
The late Quaternary paleoclimate of eastern Beringia has primarily been studied by drawing qualitative inferences from vegetation shifts. To quantitatively reconstruct summer temperatures, we analyzed lake sediments for fossil chironomids, and additionally we analyzed the sediments for fossil pollen and organic carbon content. A comparison with the δ 18 O record from Greenland indicates that the general climatic development of the region througho…
