Assessing the Role of Incubation Temperature as a Barrier to Successful Establishment of Coho Salmon () in a Rapidly Warming Arctic.

Warming associated with climate change is driving poleward shifts in the marine habitat of anadromous Pacific salmon ( spp.). Yet the spawning locations for salmon to establish self-sustaining populations and the consequences for the ecosystem if they should do so are unclear.

Pacific salmon in the Canadian Arctic highlight a range-expansion pathway for sub-Arctic fishes.

Rapid climate change is altering Arctic ecosystems at unprecedented rates. These changes in the physical environment may open new corridors for species range expansions, with substantial implications for subsistence-dependent communities and sensitive ecosystems. Over the past 20 years, rising incidental harvest of Pacific salmon by subsistence fishers has been monitored across a widening range spanning multiple land claim jurisdictions in Arctic Canada.
