Download or read book The Vulnerability of Provincially Rare Species species at Risk to Climate Change in the Lake Simcoe Watershed Ontario Canada written by Samuel R. Brinker and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Certain species considered provincially rare in the Lake Simcoe watershed including some listed as threatened or endangered under Ontario's Endangered Species Act (Statutes of Ontario 2007), may be at risk of extirpation due to adverse effects of natural and/or anthropogenic stressors. Climate change, acting alone or in combination with other stressors, may pose an important emerging threat for many of these species. Several tools to assess climate change effects are being developed for use by resource managers to categorize the relative vulnerability of selected species to climate change. In response to the Lake Simcoe Protection Plan, Ontario's Adaptation Strategy and Action Plan: 2011-2014, and the Ministry of Natural Resources' Climate Change Strategy, vulnerability assessments have been completed for selected natural assests in the Lake Simcoe watershed. By testing the model against a subset of high priority provincially rare species found within the Lake Simcoe watershed the authors objectives were to: categorize the relative vulnerability of each species; identify species-level indicators that are useful for assessing vulnerability to climate change; identify the key factors causing species vulnerability.--Document.

A Places to Go section recommends the best areas to visit to explore the natural wonders of this amazing region and its treasure of wild biodiversity. It is a true layman’s guide to nature in the Kawarthas. The Peterborough Field Naturalists (PFN) is a registered charity and active club in Peterborough, Ontario, that dates back to 1940. The authors include knowledgeable naturalists, teachers, and university and ministry professionals in a wide variety of wildlife fields. Their goal is to know, appreciate, and conserve nature in all its forms.
