“…Future work could involve testing and assessing the application of a dual WS and TK approach in a cumulative effects monitoring framework. The approach could complement integrated water resources management systems, such as for the Okanagan Basin in British Columbia (Melnychuk, Jatel, & Warwick Sears, 2016). Also, future work should seek knowledge from residents who fish the Salt River to supplement existing information.…”

Indigenous community members along the Slave River in Canada have voiced their concerns for the health of ecosystems under pressure from resource extraction, hydroelectric development and global climate change. We present a test case of traditional knowledge and scientific results about the spawning and migration patterns of fish in the Slave River and Delta. This dual knowledge system approach elucidates the broader connectivity of local study regions and can improve monitoring programmes by extending beyond the usual context/confines of the present or recent past, increasing the spatial and temporal range of system information.
