  1. Overview of the State of the St. Lawrence, 2019 edition

    The Overview of the State of the St. Lawrence, 2019 edition, takes stock of the freshwater and seawater ecosystem of the St. Lawrence River using indicators focusing on water, sediments, biological resources, banks, and uses. It also examines three key challenges that the St. Lawrence River is facing: nutrient overload from Lac Saint-Pierre, the acidification of water in the Gulf, and the impacts of climate change on the river’s tributaries. The overview is meant to be an information tool for the benefit of decision-makers and interveners with respect to the St. Lawrence River.

  2. Atlas des territoires d’intérêt pour la conservation dans les basses-terres du Saint-Laurent

    One of the projects under the biodiversity conservation theme of the St. Lawrence Action Plan is the development of an integrated plan for conserving the St. Lawrence’s natural environments and biodiversity. Identifying sites of interest for biodiversity conservation was the first step in this integrated planning process leading to the production of the Atlas of sites of conservation interest in the St. Lawrence Lowlands. Conservation targets (coarse filter) selected for this atlas are woodlands, wetlands, open habitats (old fields, perennial crops), and aquatic environments. This report presents the methods that led to the production of this atlas.

  3. (Titre-36 – Arial Black – centré)

    Lake Saint-Pierre and its floodplain, which is the largest in Québec, is one of the major components of the St. Lawrence ecosystem. With more than 288 resident and migratory bird species and 79 fish species (MDDEFP, 2013), the lake offers an exceptional natural environment, which has received international recognition for its rich biodiversity. New inventories were conducted in the summer of 2017 to measure the evolution of bird communities five years after the work was completed. Due to the high water levels in 2017, the inventories were repeated in 2018.

    Lake Saint-Pierre and its floodplain, which is the largest in Quebec, is one of the major components of the St. Lawrence ecosystem. With more than 288 resident and migratory bird species and 79 fish species (MDDEFP, 2013), the lake offers an exceptional natural environment which has received international recognition for its rich biodiversity. Bird surveys were conducted in the summer of 2017 in order to obtain a picture of the avifauna present along four watercourses prior to the restoration work as well as in a wildlife habitat management area (agricultural field). Owing to the high water levels in 2017, the surveys were repeated in 2018.

    Lake Saint-Pierre and its floodplain, which is the most extensive in Quebec, are a key component of the St. Lawrence ecosystem. With more than 288 resident and migratory bird species and 79 fish species (MDDEFP, 2013), the lake offers an exceptional natural environment, which has received international recognition for its rich biodiversity. Bird surveys were conducted in 2012, 2017 and 2018 in order to obtain a picture of the bird communities present along seven watercourses and in three wildlife management areas in the Baie-du-Febvre, Berthierville and Saint-Barthélemy areas. In 2019, prior to restoration, a survey was conducted to assess the use in Saint-Barthélemy on the north shore of the St. Lawrence by migrating geese and waterfowl.

    One of the projects under the biodiversity conservation theme of the St. Lawrence Action Plan is the development of an integrated plan for conserving the St. Lawrence’s natural environments and biodiversity. Identifying the sites where the conservation needs are the most urgent was the first step in this integrated planning process leading to the production of the Atlas of sites of interest for conservation in the Estuary and Gulf of St. Lawrence coastal regions.

  10. Invasive alien plant species of the St. Lawrence wetlands

    This fact sheet provides an overview of the evolving status of invasive alien plant species (IAPS) in the St. Lawrence wetlands from 2008 to 2014. The present status of the St. Lawrence regarding IAPS invasion is considered intermediate. The overall IAPS trend, assessed across three-year intervals between data inventories, is considered stable. By species and sectors however there are variations.
