How logging is heating up B.C.'s salmon-spawning rivers

A joint investigation between DFO researchers and Simon Fraser University's Salmon Watershed Lab found logging near rivers can drive up water temperatures. If streams are too warm, fish can stop growing or die. - Victoria Times Colonist March 22, 2023
