Relational place-based solutions for environmental policy misalignments
Kobluk, H. M., Salomon, A. K., Ford, A. T., Kadykalo, A. N., Hessami, M. A., Labranche, P.-A., Richter, C., Palen, W. J., Happynook, Ḥ. T., Humphries, M. M., & Bennett, E. M.
Current reductionist approaches to environmental governance cannot resolve social-ecological crises. Siloed institutions fail to address linked social and ecological processes, thereby neglecting issues of equity, justice, and cumulative effects. Global insights can be gained from Indigenous-led initiatives that support the resilience of relationships within and among places.

Planting techniques and abiotic variation at two salt marsh restoration sites in the Bay of Fundy
Rabinowitz, T.R.M., Lundholm, J.T., Graham, J.M., Bowron, T.M. and van Proosdij, D.
Salt marshes provide many important ecosystem services, and interest in their restoration is growing in response to climate change. In Maritime Canada, salt marsh restoration projects have focused on restoring tidal flow without planting. Over time, these sites can show persistent deficits in vegetation diversity. We evaluated six techniques for encouraging revegetation (plugs, field transplants, seed, wrack, tilling, and no planting) with eight native species (Carex paleacea, Juncus gerardii, Limonium...

Modelling cultural ecosystem services in agricultural dykelands and tidal wetlands to inform coastal infrastructure decisions: A social media data approach
Zhao, Q., Chen, Y., Gone, K. P., Wells, E., Margeson, K., & Sherren, K.
Agricultural dykelands and tidal wetlands around Canada’s Bay of Fundy are experiencing increasingly severe impacts from sea level rise and climate change, leading to management challenges. Managers will have to decide which dykes to reinforce, which to realign or remove, and where to restore wetlands. These decisions will have important impacts on the ecosystem services provided by different landscapes and the...

Institutional Innovation for Nature-Based Coastal Adaptation: Lessons from Salt Marsh Restoration in Nova Scotia, Canada
Rahman, H. M., Sherren, K., & Van Proosdij, D.
Sea-levels have been rising at a faster rate than expected. Because of the maladaptive outcomes of engineering-based hard coastal protection infrastructure, policy makers are looking for alternative adaptation approaches to buffer against coastal flooding—commonly known as nature-based coastal adaptation (NbCA). However, how to implement NbCA under an institutional structure demonstrating ‘inertia’ to alternative adaptation approaches is a question that seeks scientific attention. Building on a case study derived from a highly climate-vulnerable Canadian province, this study shows how the entrepreneurial use of scientific information and institutional opportunities helped...

High sedimentation rates lead to rapid vegetation recovery in tidal brackish wetland restoration
Van Proosdij, D., Graham, J., Lemieux, B., Bowron, T., Poirier, E., Kickbush, J., Ellis, K., & Lundholm, J.
Introduction: Tidal wetland restoration in the Bay of Fundy involves restoring tidal hydrology to sites with tidal restrictions. Most have focused on salt marsh sites close to the mouth of estuaries, but there are also many tidally restricted wetlands closer to the freshwater end of tidal rivers. Recovery of salt marsh vegetation has been rapid in past projects, but little is known about sediment and vegetation dynamics post restoration in tidal brackish or freshwater environments.
Methods: We implemented tidal wetland restoration projects on two tidal rivers near the inland limit of saltwater. Hydrological restoration involved breaching (St. Croix) or realigning agricultural dykes (Belcher Street). We monitored hydrology, sediment accretion and vegetation at replicated plots on restoration sites and nearby reference tidal marshes; and conducted habitat mapping and elevation surveys using drones. |

Using the Ecosystem Serviceshed Concept in Conservation Planning for More Equitable Outcomes
Goyette, J.-O., Mendes, P., Cimon-Morin, J., Dupras, J., Pellerin, S., Rousseau, A. N., & Poulin, M.
Considering ecosystem services (ESs) in conservation planning represents a growing interest in global standards. However, this task has been hindered by the complexity of the ecological and socio-economic attributes of ESs, and questions remain, such as how to incorporate the demand for ESs, and ensure equity among beneficiary groups. To...

Synthesis of science: findings on Canadian Prairie wetland drainage
Baulch, H., Whitfield, C., Wolfe, J., Basu, N., Bedard-Haughn, A., Belcher, K., … Spence, C.
This synthesis of the state of the science on wetland drainage in the Canadian Prairies is aimed at assembling current knowledge based on western scientific methods to articulate what is known about the variability of drainage effects across the region. Traditional knowledge, which represents a different but complementary way of knowing the functioning of prairie watersheds (sometimes also termed catchments, or basins), and the processes driving change within them, is not discussed here. Instead, this synthesis is presented in the spirit of building such collaborations. It summarizes current western scientific knowledge on surface hydrology, groundwater interactions, nutrient export, biodiversity, carbon storage and greenhouse gas dynamics, and wetland conservation socioeconomics. The implications for water security now and in the future are also discussed.

Northern Food Systems in Transition: The Role of the Emerging Agri-Food Industry in the Northwest Territories (Canada) Food System.
Lemay, M. A., Radcliffe, J., Bysouth, D., & Spring, A.
This paper reports the findings of an ethnographic study that involved working with local organizations, food advocates, and communities to develop strategies for expanding the nascent Northwest Territories (NWT), Canada agri-food industry. The NWT represents a unique case study in that the fledging agri-food industry has been recognized for its promise in contributing to the core goals of the transitioning NWT food system. The study is guided by two research questions: (1) How is the promise of the emerging NWT agri-food industry framed within the context of the broader food system? (2) Given this framing of the NWT agri-food industry, how can it contribute to the sustainability of the NWT food system and to the goals of food security, poverty reduction, nutrition, and economic development?

Disrupting and diversifying the values, voices and governance principles that shape biodiversity science and management
Salomon, A., Okamoto, D., Wilson, K. i. i., Happynook, h., Wickaninnish, Mack, w., Davidson, S., Guujaaw, G., Humchitt, W., Happynook, T., Cox, w., Gillette, H., Christiansen, n. y., Dragon, D., Kobluk, H., Lee, L., Tinker, M., Silver, J., Armitage, D., & Augustine, A.
With climate, biodiversity and inequity crises squarely upon us, never has there been a more pressing time to rethink how we conceptualize, understand and manage our relationship with Earth's biodiversity. Here, we describe governance principles of 17 Indigenous Nations from the Northwest Coast of North America used to understand and steward relationships among all components of nature, including humans. We then chart the colonial origins of biodiversity science and use the complex case of sea otter recovery to illuminate how ancestral governance principles can be mobilized to characterize, manage and restore...

Envisioning futures of ecosystem restoration and rehabilitation for Québec’s wetlands, agricultural, and urban landscapes
Galang, E.I.N.E., Mendes, P., Harvey, B., Poulin, M., Goyette, J.O., Č
apkun-Huot, C., Turmel-Courchesne, L., Vaillancourt, M., Destrempes, C., Torchio, G.M., Bennett, E., Hickey, G., Province of Québec is home to landscapes where nature’s benefits or ecosystem services support not only economically important activities but the overall well-being of human and non-human (eg, wildlife) communities. Among important landscape elements providing ecosystem services in Québec are wetlands, natural habitats within agricultural landscapes, and greenspaces within cities/urban communities. The future sustainability and resilience of these landscapes will greatly depend on how to approach conservation and ecosystem restoration or rehabilitation amidst the amplitude of emerging sustainability challenges...

How is the ecosystem services concept used as a tool to foster collaborative ecosystem governance? A systematic map protocol
Holzer, J.M., Hobbs, I., Baird, J. et al.
While the concept of ecosystem services has been widely adopted by scholars and increasingly used in policy and practice, there has been criticism of its usefulness to decision-makers. This systematic map will collect and analyse literature that frames ES as a collaboration tool, rather than as an ecosystem assessment tool, to answer the research question—how is the ecosystem services concept used as a tool to foster collaborative ecosystem governance and management?

Monitoring social–ecological networks for biodiversity and ecosystem services in human-dominated landscapes
Firkowski, C.R, Schwantes, A.M., Fortin, M.-J. & Gonzalez, A.
The demand the human population is placing on the environment has triggered accelerated rates of biodiversity change and created trade-offs among the ecosystem services we depend upon. Decisions designed to reverse these trends require the best possible information obtained by monitoring ecological and social dimensions of change. Here, we conceptualize a network framework to monitor change in social–ecological systems. We contextualize our framework within Ostrom’s social–ecological system framework and use it to discuss the challenges of monitoring biodiversity and ecosystem services across...
