RivTemp is a partnership between universities, federal and provincial agencies, watershed organizations and Atlantic salmon conservation organizations.
RivTemp aims to bring together organizations concerned with water temperature issues in Atlantic salmon rivers; to centralize temperature data collected by different organizations on a variety of rivers in Eastern Canada (RivTemp database) and to develop thermal metrics relevant to the development of salmon protection tools and protocols.
The establishment of the RivTemp network and its database was made possible by the financial contribution of the Atlantic Salmon Conservation Foundation (ASCF) and the participation of numerous partners active in the salmon river thermal monitoring program.
