Combining paleontological tools and archaeological data with conservation research, the paper finds that, for the past 3,000 years, crab and clam species have remained stable in the Broken Group Islands off the west coast of Vancouver Island.

New research finds that not only will climate change make heat waves hotter and longer, but the lengthening of heat waves will accelerate with each additional fraction of a degree of warming.
