Plan your perfect Ontario fall escape now! Ontario is the premier destination to enjoy the annual spectacle of summer’s lush greenery transformed into a mosaic of magnificent rich shades of red, orange and yellow. It is also harvest time, the perfect time to hop into the car to discover local flavours at farmers markets, orchards and pumpkin patches, and take in the sights and special events.

From Muskoka – which is reporting an 80% change – south, and into eastern Ontario, the reds and oranges of the sugar maples are now much more prominent.

  • S Conservation Activities on Ramsar Wetlands from March 1996 to February 1997 6 April 1998
    Ducks Unlimited's Conservation Activities on Ramsar Wetlands from March 1996 to February 1997 6 April 1998 At the 6th Ramsar Conference of the Parties in Brisbane, March 1996, Dr Alan Wentz, representing Ducks Unlimited, made an intervention which was summarized in the Conference Report (paragraph 267) as follows: "Ducks Unlimited, noting its previous financial commitments to Ramsar sites in several countries, pledged on behalf of Ducks Unlimited organizations in Australia, Canada, Europe, Mexico, New Zealand, and the USA, to commit at least SFR 3.1 million in fiscal year 1996-97 for habitat protection, restoration and management, wetland education and training programs at 21 Ramsar sites worldwide and in support of National Ramsar Committees and proposed listings of new sites, in addition to its US$ 68 million earmarked in 1996/97 for other wetland initiatives outside of Ramsar sites but in support of Ramsar objectives." This is a reprint of the text of Ducks Unlimited's 8-page printed report on its Ramsar-related activities from March 1996 to February 1997, just issued and available free from Ducks Unlimited, Inc., One Waterfowl Way, Memphis, Tennessee 38120-2351, USA (fax +1 901 758 3850).

    EFFECTS OF IMPOUNDMENT OF COASTAL WETLANDS IN GEORGIAN BAY LONG-TERM EFFECTS OF IMPOUNDMENT ON ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONS OF COASTAL WETLANDS IN GEORGIAN BAY By DALLAS TAYLOR, B.Sc. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies In Partial Fulfillments of the Requirements For the Degree Masters of Science McMaster University ©Copyright by Dallas Taylor, April 2014 McMaster University MASTER OF SCIENCE (2014) Hamilton, Ontario (Biology) TITLE: Long-term Effects of Impoundment on Ecosystem Functions of Coastal Wetlands in Georgian Bay AUTHOR: Dallas Taylor, B.Sc. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Patricia Chow-Fraser NUMBER OF PAGES: xi, 97 ii PREFACE This Master of Science thesis is composed of two chapters formatted as individual manuscripts to be submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals. These chapters have been put into context with a unifying theme discussed in a general introduction and conclusion. The first chapter has been submitted to the journal Wetlands, Ecology and Management and we are in the preliminary stages of considering a journal for the second chapter. As the author of this thesis, and under the supervision of Dr. Patricia Chow- Fraser, I collected and analyzed all data presented that are not otherwise referenced and wrote both chapters presented. All field work and data were collected with the help of dedicated field technicians. Taylor, D.R. & Chow-Fraser, P. Comparison of long-term changes in wetland communities of a diked and undiked wetland in southern Georgian Bay Taylor, D.R. & Chow-Fraser, P. Ecosystem changes in a chain of beaver impounded wetlands in eastern Georgian Bay: a glimpse of the future in a low water-level crisis iii GENERAL ABSTRACT Seasonal and annual water-level fluctuation is a primary mechanism that maintains high aquatic biodiversity in coastal marshes of the Laurentian Great Lakes by preventing formation of dense mono-cultures of emergent or submergent plants.
