We identify four syndromes of the combined local impacts of watershed pressures and climate change.

And identified several key management actions and policies that would help safeguard salmon watersheds.

New research from @sfubiosciences.bsky.social researchers @ulaskimarta.bsky.social and @jon-moore.bsky.social finds that environmental regulations in BC are failing to protect salmon and watersheds from industrial development and climate change. ow.ly/5TGg50WQMtn

3️⃣ Emerging and underused policy tools can empower local teams to plan sustainable futures for salmon and people.

2️⃣ No overarching policy tracks watershed health across industries or sets clear limits to protect salmon.

1️⃣ Pacific salmon face mounting pressures from multiple stressors governed by fragmented laws that overlook their combined impact.

New paper! #fishsci #bcpoli

Our study reveals that Pacific salmon in British Columbia face a fragmented policy landscape that fails to manage the combined impacts of industrial development and climate change.

BC and Canadian policies are rushing natural resource extraction forward--there is a parallel need to fast-track safeguards of lands and waters.

YES and due to cuts in foreign aid, Malawi is experiencing rising inflation and increasing food prices - making it even more difficult for charities to provide services.

We can't fill the gap left by USAID - but if anyone feels moved by this please consider donating: malawiorphancareproject.org

I conducted my graduate research under the USGS Georgia Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit. Outdoor enthusiasts, please reach out to your representatives.

These infographics were compiled and designed by several fish and wildlife graduate students at the University of Idaho.

The Malawi Orphan Care Project is in need of donations -- it is not directly funded by USAID but needs support to continue their feeding program with the rapidly rising cost of food in Malawi due to cuts in foreign aid. malawiorphancareproject.org

How do we recover salmon when we are "handing out band-aids with one hand and cutting up a watershed with the other"?

Great presentations and dialogues at the first BC Salmon Recovery & Resilience Conference. 📸 PSF

Going to the 2024 BC Salmon Recovery Conference? Come check out the session, "Paths out of a world of cumulative effects". I will be talking about the problem of cumulative effects and research we're doing with the Watershed Futures Initiative!
