摘要

Climate change and human activities have dramatically affected all ecosystems inhabited byAtlantic salmon, causing drastic population declines. Change in river temperature dynamics (e.g.daily variability, frequency, and duration of summer maximum, warmer thermal regimes) is of specialconcern as it impacts growth rates, reproductive success, prey abundance and phenology, timingof migration, and ultimately survival. The Atlantic Salmon Research Joint Venture held aworkshop to address the effects of climate change on freshwater habitats of Atlantic salmon andidentify research gaps and priorities. Here we summarize the state of the science for three keythemes identified by workshop participants: (1) Effects of climate change on in-river habitat conditions,(2) Physiological and behavioral responses of salmon to temperature, and (3) Population-levelresponses of salmon to climate change. The group highlighted the crucial importance of understandingand monitoring the links between river temperature dynamics and physiological requirementsof Atlantic salmon across different life stages and habitat conditions, with a focus onfreshwater life stages. Climate change will undoubtedly continue to affect instream habitats acrossall seasons and render challenging conditions for all freshwater Atlantic salmon life stages. Hence,we call for urgent interdisciplinary collaborations and partnerships among scientists and managersto address the pressing research gaps that require large-scale data integration across life cyclestages and ecosystems. More collaboration between scientists, managers, and interest groups isneeded to ensure that fundamental science directly addresses the knowledge-action gap toenhance evidence-based decision-making and conservation.
