Species Loss Scenarios Identify Canada's Northern Ecosystems as Disproportionately Vulnerable
ABSTRACT Aim Amid ongoing and accelerating global change, predicting the ecological consequences of future species loss is important for prioritising conservation actions to protect biodiversity. Species richness has long been thought to protect communities from species loss by providing ecological redundancy, whereby the loss of any one species hardly

Prevailing Climate Patterns for Concurrent High Temperature and Low Precipitation Days in Canada
Abstract In this work, we evaluated the changing frequency of concurrent daily High Temperature and Low Precipitation (HTLP) and its relationship with large‐scale climate patterns across Canada. Our analysis showed a significant increase (up to 3 days/decade) in the Canadian Arctic and southern regions of British Columbia and an insignificant decrease ...

Abstract Extreme weather events that occur concurrently are especially damaging to society, agriculture, the economy, and ecosystems. Here, we investigate the spatial distribution, trends, persistence properties, and temporal shifts of concurrent heatwaves and droughts (CHWDs) across Canada from 1979 to 2018.

First record of a least weasel in Nunavik
The spatial distributions of several small mammals in Nunavik, Québec, Canada, currently do not rely on any recorded observations due to the rarity of wildlife surveys in that area. This is concerning because understanding changes in wildlife populations in response to the rapidly warming Arctic requires knowledge of prior population states.
