Risk-Based Assessment of Climate Change Impacts and Risks on the Biological Systems and Infrastructure in the Great Lakes. Current management of Great Lakes' resources does not consider environmental variability expected from climate change. Resource managers recognize the need to evaluate the impact of a shifting climate, the uncertainty about the impacts, and consider adaptation strategies. This study aims to identify trends and projections for several variables (including air and surface temperatures, precipitation, ice freeze and break up, lake levels, wind and evaporation) as well as the impacts of the expected changes. There is a general recognition that not all climate variables will change in a linear fashion and that climate variables that are projected to change could interact in complex ways that are not fully understood. This study attempts to recognize the drivers of change in order to identify linkages and interactions be- tween climatic variables and proposed impacts.Past climate trends indicate that the average air temperature in Canada has increased 1.2˚C in the last 58 years (Environment Canada, 2006). Warming has been more significant in winter and spring and has contributed to changes in evaporation rates, less rates, less annual precipitation with less as snowfall and more as rainfall, and shorter periods of ice-cover; all of which affect freshwater ecosystems through hydrodynamic and thermodynamic processes. Keywords: Climatic data, Risk assessment, Coastal ecosystems.

Long-Term Trends and Recent Changes in the Lake Simcoe Fish Community. The Lake Simcoe fish community has considerable economic importance and is an important indicator of lake ecosystem health. Since 1954, the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources has collected information about this fish community through multiple long-term monitoring programs. Monitoring data has shown significant fish community responses to environmental stressors and subsequent lake-wide rehabilitation efforts. Recent trends in the cold-water fish community have included encouraging evidence of natural reproduction and increasing relative abundances of lake trout, lake whitefish, and cisco. Decreasing relative abundance of introduced rainbow smelt has also been observed. The diverse warm-water fish community has been influenced by recent introductions of non-native species like round goby , black crappie, and bluegill. Bluegill relative abundance has increased considerably in recent years and round goby has spread throughout the lake. Overall, there has been high variability in the relative abundance of warm-water fish species, with significant trends exhib- ited by some species, such as an apparent decrease in relative abundance of smallmouth bass. These fish community trends are discussed in the context of ecological changes and management activities occurring in the Lake Simcoe watershed. Keywords: Species diversity, Lake Simcoe, Fish populations.

Primary Productivity in the Western Basin of Lake Erie in 2013. The goal of this study was to quantify primary production in the Western Basin of Lake Erie to determine whether if current rates of primary productivity differ significantly from historic values in an era when harmful algal bloom are becoming more prevalent. Wa- ter samples were collected at varying depth between 0m - 7m in Lake Erie at Middle Sister Island (MSI) and Colchester Reef (CR), and primary productivity was measured at depth us- ing the Light and Dark Bottle Method (LBD) through the months of May and October 2013. Results revealed that the primary production for MSI ranged from 1.017 to 4.529 mg C m-3 h-1 and the annual primary production for CR ranged from 0.388 to 2.411 mg C m-3 h-1. These results are significantly lower than those reported by Fitzpatrick et al. in 2007. It is suggested that

  • FAO Aquaculture Newsletter 32
    In the morning of 26th December 2004, a devastating Tsunami of incredible magnitude struck 12 countries in South East and South Asia, East Africa and the Indian Ocean. This natural disaster caused varying degrees of damage to lives, livelihoods, infrastructure and economies in India, Indonesia (Sumatra), Malaysia, Maldives, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Somalia and the Seychelles. The countries worse hit were Indonesia and Sri Lanka; India and Thailand also suffered significant damage. The incident, which occurred for only a few minutes in each country, took more than 290 000 lives and devastated many fisheries and coastal aquaculture in all the affected countries. Reports indicate that in Sri Lanka over 70 percent of the coastal fishing capability has been lost, and in Banda Aceh in Indonesia, besides serious damage to fisheries, almost 50 000 ha of aquaculture facilities have been destroyed. The Thai and Indian marine cage culture and shrimp aquaculture (including hatcheries) sectors have also suffered significant damages. The loss in human life is staggering and can never be adequately compensated, but rebuilding the fisheries and aquaculture sector is possible and necessary. In partnership with other agencies, FAO is helping affected countries by providing emergency assistance for relief, rehabilitation, planning and rebuilding of the fisheries sectors under an agency-wide, multilateral assistance programme supported by many countries and development agencies. In doing so, FAO will ensure that the relief and rehabilitation efforts will improve the capacity of the local people to be better prepared for similar natural disasters. The assistance programme is implemented in accordance with the national rehabilitation and rebuilding plans, and in collaboration and consultation with the stakeholders.

Aquatic nuisance species (ANS) are invasive animals, plants, and disease-causing pathogens that are “out of place” in Colorado’s rivers, lakes, streams, and wetlands . They are introduced accidentally or intentionally outside of their native range . Because they are not native to Colorado habitats, they have no natural competitors and predators . Without these checks and balances, the invaders are able to reproduce rapidly and out-compete native species . ANS have harmful effects on natural resources and our use of them . Aquatic Nuisance Species are Everyone’s Problem ANS damage Colorado’s lands and waters, hurt the economy, ruin recreation opportunities, and threaten public health . Many ANS consume enormous amounts of water and reduce the water supply for livestock, wildlife, and humans . They impede water distribution systems for municipal, industrial, and agricultural supplies . They can damage boats and fishing equipment and impair all forms of water based recreation . These species change the physical characteristics of bodies of water and alter food chains . As habitat is destroyed by invasive species, the wildlife that depends on it disappears as well .

  • Appendix A: Exempt Sites
    APPENDIX A: EXEMPT SITES There are sites in Mississauga identified in Part 3 as Applewood Neighbourhood “exempt”. Exempt sites reflect unique circumstances that are not representative of the vision, direction and planning policies of the Plan, Exempt Site1 but nonetheless are recognized because they contain established land uses. Mississauga Official Plan will not be interpreted to prevent the use of any land or building on these sites for a purpose that is contrary to the Plan, if such uses or buildings lawfully existed on the date of the approval of the Plan. Generally such uses will be encouraged to relocate to lands appropriately designated. It is intended that “exempt sites” will be reviewed during the preparation of local area plans or other planning studies. Lands zoned to permit such uses or buildings are deemed to be in conformity with the provisions of the Plan. The lands identified as Exempt Site 1 are located at the northwest corner of Grand Forks Road and Bloor Street. Existing offices are permitted.
