 :00 pm \n\nSpeakers \nProfessor Dr. Jonathan Moore \n\nDescription: \nAbou
 t the SeminarClimate change and human land-use changes are exerting enormo
 us pressures on culturally important species and ecosystems, such as the 
 salmon watersheds of western North America. These ecosystems are being rap
 idly transformed by rapid climate change as well as pressured by various i
 ndustrial land-uses. This talk will share three vignettes of forward-looki
 ng science on climate change impacts and corresponding industry pressures.
  Sea-level rise is forecasted to inundate estuaries that are important nur
 sery habitat for juvenile salmon with relevance to coastal development and
  restoration. Changing climates and forestry practices are warming stream 
 temperatures and altering flow regimes that control salmon productivity an
 d survival. On the other hand, glacier retreat is creating new rivers and
  lakes for salmon, but these nascent habitats are also the target of acti
 ve mining exploration and development. Collectively, these examples showc
 ase that there is urgent need for climate change action, and that forward
 -looking science such as this can inform proactive conservation and manage
 ment actions that will increase the ability of these ecosystems to cope wi
 th climate change. This talk thus showcases local opportunities to increas
 e climate resilience, with potential broader relevance to global challeng
 es of climate change.About the SpeakerProfessor Dr. Jonathan Moore is an a
 quatic ecologist and holds the Liber Ero Research Chair of Coastal Science
  and Management and the director of the ARC (Aquatic Research Cooperative)
  Institute at Simon Fraser University, British Columbia, Canada. At SFU\
 , he leads the Salmon Watersheds Lab and they study freshwater biodiversit
 y, watersheds, and global change. They work closely with a diverse array
  of collaborators and partners to codevelop research and communicate their
  findings so that contribute to positive watershed change. He is an award-
 winning scientist recognized for research excellence and conservation impa
 ct, has published over 130 papers, and serves as various science advisor
 y roles.Please register for the event below.Register \n\nContact Informati
