Boreal Shield Watersheds: Lake Trout Ecosystems in a Changing
Environment brings together the work of a renowned international
group of scientists who specialize in aquatic science and
environmental management. They explore the functioning of Boreal
Shield ecosystems, focusing on the lake trout, the classic
coldwater species of northern glaciated lakes, using it as an
indicator of environmental change and as a model to measure the
effectiveness of management actions. This book demonstrates how
boreal waters have served as a crucible for decades of
environmental research into the impacts of nutrient additions,
trace contaminants, acid rain, climate change, sport fishing,
invasive species, and watershed disturbances. The text builds on
this substantial research legacy and explores our ability to manage
human interactions with ecosystems across the vast Boreal Shield
ecozone of North America, and with other important ecosystems
worldwide. It also provides models and new methods of assessing the
risk to and the durability of ecosystems in relation to local,
regional, and global human activities. Maps and descriptions of
several important long-term monitoring sites and an atlas
describing more than 3,000 lake trout lakes in the region are
special components of the book.
