Effects of Climate Change on the Canadian Arctic Wildlife

Effects of Climate Change on the Canadian Arctic
Wildlife
Summary
Project Leader
Berteaux, Dominique
Many northern ecosystems are undergoing major shifts related to climate change. This adds to increasing pressures
due to resource development. An understanding of these transformations and of the significance of their
consequences is critical to anticipating ways in which potential negative and positive effects to wildlife populations
(and ultimately humans) may be mitigated or used through sound management. Our overall goal is to provide the
wildlife-related knowledge necessary to conduct the integrated regional impact studies of the 'Eastern Arctic' and
'Hudson Bay', two of the four regions identified by ArcticNet to conduct regional impact studies. In addition, we
contribute to all international efforts synthesizing knowledge on biodiversity for the benefit of northern populations
and policy makers. We work through 5 specific objectives. First, we identify the main vulnerabilities of Arctic wildlife
with regards to climate change and resource development. Second, we monitor more than 30 wildlife populations
(mostly tundra wildlife and marine birds) at study sites located in the Eastern Canadian Arctic (e.g., Belcher Islands,
Rankin Inlet, Coats Island, East Bay-Southampton Island, Digges Island, Deception Bay, Bylot Island, St.Helena
Island). Third, we develop models to better understand the key interactions between species that drive the tundra
food web. Fourth, we use data from our field work and from the literature to analyze past and present responses of
wildlife to climatic variability in order to develop Impact Models. Finally, we project some wildlife patterns into the
future by forcing these Impact Models with regional climate change scenarios. This project is a collaboration
between ArcticNet researchers and a number of partners including the Canadian Wildlife Service (Environment
Canada), Parks Canada Agency, Wildlife Conservation Society Canada, Nunavut Tunngavik Inc., Nunavut Wildlife
Management Board, Baffinland Iron Mine Corporation, Department of Environment of Government of Nunavut,
Nunavut General Monitoring Program, and many Northern communities, especially members of their Hunting and
Trapping Organizations.
