  • ""This report assesses the implications of climate change for Ontario's system of provincial parks. A broad range of climate change impacts (e.g., changes in ecosystem composition, structure, and function as well as increased forest fire severity) were identified as potentially significant for Ontario Parks' policy, planning, and management frameworks. While the literature review and the models described in this report identify a number of potential impacts resulting from climate change (e.g., changes in biome climate envelope representation, increased forest fire severity, and the loss of polar bear [Ursus maritimus] habitat from Polar Bear Provincial Park), significant knowledge gaps remain in many areas. As such, the results presented in this study should be taken as indicative, not predictive, of the magnitude of impact climate change may have on Ontario's provincial parks."--Document."@en
