Declining fertility and rising life expectancy are exerting powerful pres- sure on the growth of Canada's population and on its age structure.1 Projections based on current fertility rates and immigration levels, with moderately rising life expectancy, show growth rates of the population of traditiona...
with 2023 being the warmest and driest year since at least 19803. Although temperatures were extreme relative to the historical record, climate projections indicate that these temperatures are likely to be typical during the 2050s, even under a moderate climate mitigation scenario (shared socioeconomi...
Finally, based on a recovery target of 1,188 spawning females/year for each discrete population and current abundances from 1% to 10% of this target, long-term projections indicate recovery time frames ranging from 20 to over 100 years, depending on the recovery actions implemented....
(r) of population growth. Estimates ofrused as a proxy of stock productivity were negative when the stock collapsed, indicating that the biomass would have decreased even without fishing. Population abundance projections for the recent period suggest a potential increase in population size of 7.3% ...

A detailed business plan, developed in Ontario as part of the CFHI collaborative, was used in all jurisdictions to estimate financial resources (e.g., costs, remuneration) based on service growth projections. Although not all provinces wrote explicit scaling-up plans (2.8), most produced ...
Commonly this is accomplished using fish stock assessments, scientific analysis of stock health, trends, and projections of what the stock is likely to do under different management options that are then used in fisheries management decisions, such as setting quotas. A recent global review of stock...
And espe- cially in the global economy, these projections are fraught with uncertainty. That said, we come to the conclusion that a decade from now US long-term real interest rates might well be higher than at present, say on the order of 3%. The corresponding figure for Canadian long-...
(3) RCM projections driven by GCMs participating in the CMIP5 program. The RCM simulations obtained in the ARCTIC-CORDEX domain have not previously been evaluated over the Canadian Arctic, and previous RCM studies of Arctic climate have tended to focus on individual models (e.g. Saha et al....
