A First Nation history and approach to acidification in Burrard Inlet
In Burrard Inlet, the shellfish resources First Nations have traditionally relied upon are being affected by acidification. The archaeological record and traditional ecological knowledge coupled with long term data on pH levels can potentially be used to understand changes in species composition ove...
