Implications of salmon conservation and rearing strategies on epigenetics and riparian ecosystems in New Brunswick, Canada
July 25, 2025 - River ecosystems on Canada’s East Coast face nutrient limitations, largely due to the decline in anadromous fish like Atlantic salmon, which are critical for transporting marine-derived nutrients (MDNs) that enrich...
Lower trophic level subsidies for juvenile Atlantic Salmon production: Can primary and secondary production be linked to juvenile salmon production?
July 27, 2023 - Following the many years of data collection and accumulation on production of juvenile Atlantic salmon and secondary (e.g., benthic invertebrates) and primary (e.g., nutrients, algae, and biofilm) by many organizations,...
Restoring ecosystems and wild origin inner Bay of Fundy Atlantic salmon through marine conservation rearing
July 6, 2020 - Fundy National Park (FNP), with its partners, has implemented an innovative restoration strategy which has seen over 2800 wild origin inner Bay of Fundy (iBoF) adult Atlantic salmon released back...
Atlantic Salmon embryo development and population assessment in the Tobique River Basin: potential for impacts from industry activities
June 25, 2019 - Atlantic Salmon populations are steadily declining in the Saint John River system, with environmental, physical, and biological factors likely acting cumulatively. The Tobique River catchment is a major spawning area...
Back from the brink: An ecosystem approach to restoring native adult Atlantic salmon through conservation rearing
May 3, 2018 - Fundy National Park (FNP), with its partners, has implemented an innovative restoration strategy which has seen over 2200 wild origin inner Bay of Fundy (iBoF) adult Atlantic salmon released back...
Identifying critical thermal refugia and response timing to high water temperature events for adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
May 3, 2018 - The project will focus on identifying 1) critical response thresholds to high temperature stress and 2) critical thermal refugia, and their characteristics of adult Atlantic salmon in Little Southwest Miramichi...
