Title: Climate Change and its Potential Impact on Insectivorous Bird Populations of Strathcona Provincial Park
Speaker: Mateo Jaeckel
Date: Monday, September 11, 2023
Time: 7:00 p.m. PT
See the registration link below.
In this presentation, the speaker will discuss how different aspects and trends of climate change may be impacting insectivorous bird populations that rely on productive fens found throughout Paradise Meadows in Strathcona Provincial Park. Using citizen science data from iNaturalist as well as on-site observations, this presentation will seek to determine whether shifts in precipitation and hydric conditions could affect the ecology of the park.
