Our water temperatures are heating up! As summer gets into full swing, you will notice the water temperatures increasing. While this weather is great for people, it can cause extreme stress to a variety of animals, including species-at-risk Atlantic salmon. NWAI is working hard to remove barriers to vital cold water refugia that are essential to these animals for species survival. For more information on Salmon and thermal refuge, check out information from our collaborators at the Atlantic Salmon Federation . Much of our water quality monitoring work is funded, in part, by the Government of New Brunswick and NB Wildlife Trust Fund. www.asf.ca/news-and-magazine/in-the-field/cold-water-enhancement#atlanticsalmonconservation #climatechange #watershed #wolastoq #conservation #protection #ASF #ASCF ...
