Ecological reserves are areas selected to preserve representative and special natural ecosystems, plant and animal species, features, and phenomena. The key goal of ecological reserves is to contribute to the maintenance of biological diversity and the protection of genetic materials. All consumptive resource uses and the use of motorized vehicles are prohibited. Research and educational
Narcosli Lake Ecological Reserve lies in a shallow valley on the Interior Plateau. Lands around its northern end are very flat, while low hills rising to 1,310 m flank the southern portion. Narcosli Lake, about 325 ha in area and 5 km long, is very shallow and divided by a narrows into two basins of

Primary Role The primary role of Galiano Island Ecological Reserve is to preserve a unique bog in the Coastal Douglas-fir (CDF) Biogeoclimatic Zone. Within the dry rain shadow forest of the Gulf Islands, this 30-hectare ecological reserve protects an unusual and sensitive bog habitat and a largely undisturbed marsh ecosystem. This ecological reserve contains ericaceous
Primary Role The primary role of San Juan Ridge Ecological Reserve is to protect a rare and disjunct population of the white glacier lily, sub-alpine mountain hemlock vegetation, and subalpine wetlands. Overlooking rugged Juan de Fuca Provincial Park, this 130-hectare mountainous ecological reserve has a northerly aspect, ridgetop winds, and deep snowfall that result in
This report describes the Yookwa Creek portion of the restoration work completed in Nimpkish River watershed during the 2003 instream construction window after several years of study. The Nimpkish Watershed Restoration Plan, 2002-2006 developed by ALBY Systems Ltd. (2001) ranked Reach Y1 of Yookwa Creek the highest priority reach for restoration in the Nimpkish Watershed.
The concept of involving citizen groups in the collection of long-term ecological baseline data is a relatively new idea for British Columbia. Currently, the demand for these data is on the increase, while the financial capacity and human resources of the traditional agencies collecting ecological data appears to be in long-term decline. As community-based ecosystem
Carina Gjerdrum*†, Anne M. J. Valle ́ e‡§, Colleen Cassady St. Clair*¶ Anomalously warm sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) are associated with interannual and decadal variability as well as with long-term climate changes indicative of global warming. Such oscillations could precipitate changes in a variety of oceanic processes to affect marine species worldwide. As global temperatures continue
