A multi-party initiative led by the Skeetchestn Indian Band, supported by �� and other partners, is restoring the Deadman River and studying innovative, culturally-informed strategies to mitigate the impacts of severe wildfires on watersheds and salmon habitats.

Finding keys to salmon resiliency through research

Sustainable fish populations depend on resilient ecosystems. With climate change, habitat loss and other environmental pressures posing significant threats to both fish stocks and their habitats, researchers at ��’s Quesnel River Research Centre (QRRC) are working to understand the impacts of those pressures on salmon and develop strategies to preserve salmon species for future generations.

Extreme weather results in drastic changes in waterways

Rivers and streams in British Columbia were hit hard twice in 2021, first by a heat dome and then by atmospheric rivers. Prior to the weather events, �� researchers installed temperature sensors in waterways across northern B.C. In a new paper, they analyze the data to determine the impact of the extreme weather.
