This grant is for research aimed at enhancing the understanding of fish community variations in Ontario, Canada’s rivers, specifically in relation to multi-scale landscape features. Natural resource managers seek to comprehend how fish communities respond to human activities across diverse natural landscape contexts. The research will investigate data from four river basins, covering various geological, temperature, agricultural, urban, dam, and connectivity characteristics. The primary objective is to determine the relative importance of different scales of influence—such as local, valley section, or catchment—on the composition and structure of fish communities. This effort will provide crucial insights for environmental management.

| Description: | The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Great Lakes Science Center is offering a funding opportunity for research to improve understanding of fish community variation in rivers of Ontario, Canada relative to multi-scale landscape characteristics. Natural resource managers in Canada are interested to understand how fish communities respond to human activities in catchments across a range of natural landscape contexts. To address this need, data collected in four river basins spanning a range of geologic, temperature, agriculture, urban, dam, and downstream connectivity characteristics will be investigated. Specifically, the research will investigate the relative importance of different scales of influence (e.g., local vs. valley section vs. catchment) on variation in fish community composition and structure. |
