So proud of this work that brings art + science together to create an Inclusive Regional #CumulativeEffects assessment process grounded in Indigenous values and knowledge. Check out our new paper here: doi.org/10.1002/pan3.1…

Fantastic group of speakers in today's Science Board Symposium! PICES - North Pacific Marine Science Organization #PICES2023

So honoured to be the first #PICES ECOP award winner, speaking in Seattle on using mathematical models to manage cumulative threats to declining killer whales and salmon using a socio-ecological framework #PICES2023

This has to stop. I cry every time I see a news release about this awful war #CeasefireForGazaNOW

Does your research involve understanding #CumulativeImpacts? If so, you should check out our new paper that uses empirical data to predict impact rather than relying on vulnerabilities doi.org/10.1111/cobi.1… Joel Williams @ChristinABuelow Chris Brown Viv Tulloch 🐳🐠🐬🌲👩‍👧 @nswdpi

Predicting regional cumulative effects of future development on coastal ecosystems to support Indigenous governance 🌊 Uses participatory tools and a predictive framework to draw upon and interweave multiple forms of knowledge 💭 🔗 doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

1/ I am proud to share today the third and final paper, which marks the successful end of a five-year collaboration between Tara Martin's Lab (Viv Tulloch 🐳🐠🐬🌲👩‍👧, Megan Adams, Riley Finn, et al.), myself (Environment Canada), and Kitasoo Xai’xais, Nuxalk, and Wuikinuxv Nations. 🥳

2/ Together, we have developed a new approach to #CumulativeEffectsAssessment that is inclusive, regional & underpinned by #IndigenousKnowledge. For more information: taramartin.org/research/cumul…

3/ Published in Journal of Applied Ecology: @Vivtulloch’s study reveals that wild salmon & herring have <50% probability of persistence under the current impacts of forestry, mining, & salmon aquaculture. doi.org/10.1111/1365-2…

4/ We predict the #cumulativeeffects from current and expanded #forestry, #mining & salmon #aquaculture activities will result in an 8% decline overall in #ecosystemhealth across the Central Coast, compared to a 15% increase under a tourism economy scenario

So grateful to work on #conservation in this beautiful Great Bear Rainforest doi.org/10.1111/1365-2… We produced something special despite Covid, mat leave, new babies, family loss. Esp. grateful to my amazing co-lead Megan Adams & Riley Finn #academicmum #dreamwork #singlemum

2/4 Our new approach to #CumulativeEffects assessment is inclusive, regional & underpinned by Indigenous knowledge - reveals that wild salmon and herring have less than 50% probability of persistence under current impacts of forestry, mining, and salmon aquaculture.

3/4 Future scenarios predict expansion of these industries will lead to 8% decline in ecosystem health across Central Coast. In contrast, predicted ecosystem health under a tourism economy scenario increased up to 15%, driven by removal of salmon aquaculture & industrial forestry

4/4 Our #CumulativeEffects process was built on principles of Indigenous sovereignty, regional autonomy, trauma-informed design, inclusivity, and reciprocity.

#NewPaperAlert I'm beyond proud to share this hot off the press publication in PNASNews 'Centering relationships to place for more meaningful research and engagement' We outline individual, collective, and systemic pathways to #transform research (1/2) pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

So proud to play a very small part in this amazing work led by Fiona Beaty and co-authored by my special cohort from COMPASS leaders for sea change - slow down to centre relationships to place for more meaningful research and engagement pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…

Proud and humbled to have been invited to speak at this CMS workshop on climate impacts on marine species, and supporting actions that can improve resilience of the great whales given future change.
