Invasive Species, Climate Change, and Wildfire Management Resources

Canada’s ecosystems and fire regimes are under increasing pressure from two interconnected global threats: invasive species and climate change.

Research Summaries

The NISCC Network aims to explore and share research, perspectives, and management strategies that address these critical issues. This section provides resources on the interplay between climate change, invasive species, and wildfires.

DISCOVER CONCISE SUMMARIES OF RESEARCH PAPERS, EACH OFFERING KEY MANAGEMENT IMPLICATIONS.

Climate Extremes

Examining the impacts of extreme weather on ecosystems and invasive species spread.

Novel Pathways
