Journal Article
Fakhari, M., Raymond, J., Martel, R., Dugdale, S. J., & Bergeron, N. (2022). Identification of Thermal Refuges and Water Temperature Patterns in Salmonid-Bearing Subarctic Rivers of Northern Quebec. Geographies, 2(3), 528-548. https://doi.org/10.3390/geographies2030032

In summer, salmonids can experience thermal stress during extreme weather conditions. This may affect their growth and even threaten their survival. Cool water zones in rivers constitute thermal refuges, allowing fish to be more comfortable to grow a...

A possible role for river restoration enhancing biodiversity through interaction with wildfire (2022)
Journal Article
Pugh, B. E., Colley, M., Dugdale, S. J., Edwards, P., Flitcroft, R., Holz, A., Johnson, M., Mariani, M., Means‐Brous, M., Meyer, K., Moffett, K. B., Renan, L., Schrodt, F., Thorne, C., Valman, S., Wijayratne, U., & Field, R. (2022). A possible role for river restoration enhancing biodiversity through interaction with wildfire. Global Ecology and Biogeography, 31(10), 1990-2004. https://doi.org/10.1111/geb.13555

Background: Historically, wildfire regimes produced important landscape-scale disturbances in many regions globally. The “pyrodiversity begets biodiversity” hypothesis suggests that wildfires that generate temporally and spatially heterogeneous mosai...

Looking to the Skies: Realising the Combined Potential of Drones and Thermal Infrared Imagery to Advance Hydrological Process Understanding in Headwaters (2022)
Journal Article
Dugdale, S. J., Klaus, J., & Hannah, D. M. (2022). Looking to the Skies: Realising the Combined Potential of Drones and Thermal Infrared Imagery to Advance Hydrological Process Understanding in Headwaters. Water Resources Research, 58(2), Article e2021WR031168. https://doi.org/10.1029/2021wr031168

In river systems, headwater networks contain the vast majority of the stream length. Thus, climate and land-use change in headwaters have disproportionate impacts on downstream ecosystems and societies that rely on them. Despite decades of hydrologic...
