His talk will address the ways that climate change will affect forest birds such as their distribution and abundance, and the timing of their migration and nesting. Climate change will also affect forest habitat which in turn will change the nature of forest bird communities. As the effects of climate change become more pronounced, what added pressures will landbirds face? Peter Thomas oversees programming on landbirds for the Canadian Wildlife Service of Environment and Climate Change Canada in the four Atlantic Provinces. These responsibilities include species monitoring, research, stewardship, funding program review, and environmental assessment review. Peter has degrees from Acadia University and McGill University, and has been working with the Canadian Wildlife Service in varying capacities for 19 years. His current work for landbirds is primarily concentrated on boreal regions of Atlantic Canada, as well as trying to determine how to use new technologies, such as LIDAR, to help promote landbird conservation in the region.
