Salmon in a changing environment: Developing community-driven water temperature monitoring and salmon observatory networks in the northern range of Atlantic salmon

Recipient: Memorial University
Approved Amount: $15,000 for 2017 (2nd year of 3-year project, total: $50,000)
Year Approved: 2017

This project aims to develop a community-driven water temperature monitoring network as well as a observatory salmon network while building capacities in aboriginal and non-aboriginal communities. The monitoring networks will aid in developing simple water temperature models that will be able to provide thermal scenarios associated with predicted climate change.
