Snow basin index mapping is based on analysis from the River Forecast Centre, and is meant to accompany the Snow Conditions and Water Supply Bulletins that are published for data from January 1st, February 1st, March 1st, April...

Benthic macro-invertebrate diversity, stream hydrology, water chemistry, climate, geology, and landcover are collected at randomly selected sites using a standard protocol for the assessment of stream condition and are being monitored both at reference and impacted sites. The overall scope or aim...

The main objective of the measure is to monitor how Invasive Alien Plant percent cover, a recognized stressor to native biodiversity, currently compares to pre-determined thresholds and how it is changing over time across the three different Invasive Plant Management Zones (Integrated Control,...

Subalpine wildflower meadows occur at high elevations in mountainous environments, and are characterized by spectacularly diverse and showy wildflower meadows interspersed with stands of subalpine tree species. The subalpine wildflower meadows on the summit of Mount Revelstoke and Glacier are...
