Benthic macroinvertebrate assessment of Kabakwa lake
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Kabakwa Lake’s 2023 Benthic Macroinvertebrate Water Quality Assessment was completed as part of an aquatic biomonitoring program by U-Links in conjunction with Kabakwa Lake owners, such as Bill Forbes. The 2023 visitation was the third year of sampling, which contributed to the long-term dataset required to determine water quality trends. Benthic macroinvertebrates (hereafter, benthos) are invertebrates that spend most or all of their lives in water which can make them susceptible to organic pollution (Jones et al., 2006; Borisko et al, 2007). Benthos in conjunction with water chemistry data can be used to access the health of a lake (Carbone et al, 1998).
This summary seeks to provide stakeholders with a preliminary indication of the health of Kabakwa Lake (hereafter, Kabakwa). This is done though explaining what the benthos community assemblage infers about the current water quality of Kabakwa. The objectives for 2023 include (1) collecting benthos through a modified OBBN sampling protocol; (2) identifying collected benthos in lab and sorting them into OBBN groupings; (3) quantifying each group using metrics to determine abundance, richness, and diversity; (4) interpreting the results to provide an assessment of Kabakwa’s water quality.

Benthic Macroinvertebrate Health Assessment of Little Hawk Lake
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This project is the fourth year Trent University has collaborated with the U-Links Centre for Community Based Research and Halls & Hawks Lakes Property Owner Association (HHLPOA). This collaboration finds Trent University biology students gathering data for a five-year long collaborative benthic macro-invertebrate biomonitoring program. The purpose of the health assessment of Little Hawk Lake is for Trent students to collect data that will be interpreted to provide a statement on the current perceived state of Little Hawk Lake. The data collected will also be used as baseline data for U-Links and HHLPOA projects which will be interpreted in the future by the collaborating groups to evaluate water quality and overall health of the lake through the usage of OBBN benthic macro-invertebrates.

Benthic macroinvertebrate assessment of Big Hawk Lake
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The purpose of this project is to research, analyze, and interpret benthic macroinvertebrate data gathered at Big Hawk Lake, in addition to water chemistry and aquatic vegetation, to assess and understand the water quality of the lake. The results of the water quality analyses and benthic indices aided in developing recommendations which will be provided to the Halls and Hawks Lakes Property Owners Association (HHLPOA). Recommendations will include efforts that can be made to maintain and improve the health of the lake, aligning with the HHLPOA’s long-term goal of keeping their lakes healthy and sustainable. In reference to the HHPLOA vision statement, an evaluation of the concerns at Big Hawk Lake will be executed and considered through benthic water quality indices and measures of water chemistry. This summary report will include the study methods, our findings, results, and recommendations for maintaining the water quality at Big Hawk Lake based on its current status.

Wetland Assessment
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Wetlands provide a host of biological, social, hydrological, and cultural services, though they are being destroyed at an alarming rate in Ontario in the name of human development. The only way for a wetland to be fully protected from development is it being designated as provincially significant under the Ontario Wetland Evaluation System (OWES), created by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (OMNRF). This study conducted a preliminary assessment of the wetland on the northwestern edge of Grace Lake to determine if there is merit for its designation as provincially significant following a formal environmental impact assessment.
Flora and fauna observational data, organic content data, water chemistry, and water flow data were collected. All data was then inputted into the OWES scoring manual for Northern Ontario, and a score for the Grace Lake Wetland (GLW) was calculated. Our preliminary results found that the wetland could be deemed provincially significant, as it scored 247.52 points in the “Special Features” component, and a wetland can score a minimum of 200 points in this component to be considered a provincially significant wetland (PSW).
Our findings suggest that there is likely justification for a formal assessment of the GLW, and there may be more findings by a professional team than we were able to gather in this preliminary assessment. There are various opportunities for the expansion of our findings in future research, including conducting the assessment over multiple seasons and engaging members of the Grace Lake community to partake in various citizen science initiatives. If a
formal assessment designates the GLW as provincially significant, then it and any area within 120 meters of it will be protected from unsustainable development.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Insects are a large group of arthropods that play essential roles in our environment,
including cycling nutrients, pollinating plants, acting as a food source for other taxa, and many
more. However, regarding non-environmental applications, insects play important roles in
forensic entomology. Although well-studied in urban regions, there is a lack of biodiversity
information on blowfly species in rural habitats. Therefore, this study aimed to determine
blowfly species composition in Haliburton, Ontario. Four bottle traps were set up across three
different types of forests in Glebe Park between July 1st to September 2nd, 2022. In the family
Calliphoridae, we report 11 species: Lucilia illustris, Phormia regina, Calliphora livida, Lucilia
silvarum, Lucilia coeruleiviridis, Calliphora vicina, Lucilia sericata, Calliphora vomitoria,
Cynomya cadaverina, Calliphora terraenovae, and Protophormia terraenovae. We examined if
several environmental variables affected species abundance and composition. We found
accumulated degree days above 0°C, numeric date, total precipitation (14 days), and humidity
affect species abundance. However, none of the variables examined (forest type, elevation, and
distance from the water) seemed to affect species composition. Our results align with previous
research in which accumulated degree days affected Calliphoridae abundance. The results of this
study can help answer questions in forensic entomology, such as calculating post-mortem
intervals, stages of decomposition, and determining if a body has been moved from its original
location.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Forest health surveys have been done worldwide to provide relevant data on the current health of forests and provide long-term analyses of changes in the ecosystem. This has been shown to help early identification of disturbances and prevent future harm. In this report, students from Trent University set up eight Permanent Sampling Plots (PSPs) in the Barnum Creek Nature Reserve to collect forest health data for the Haliburton Highlands Land Trust. This field data collected includes tree diameter at breast height (DBH), tree height, canopy class, species presence, downed woody debris characteristics, and tree defects. Field data was then analyzed to determine the distribution of DBH and stem defects, relative stem density, basal area per hectare, and proportion of downed woody debris versus decomposition class for each site. This data allowed students to conclude that it is a sugar maple-eastern white cedar-dominated forest with good diversity and valued habitat for wildlife. One concern noted is the high presence of closed wounds on the trees. In completing the analysis of data, students recommend to the HHLT that they continue to pursue goals in protecting and maintaining the forests, and having the public keep good stewardship of the land.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This extensive literature study offers a full evaluation of the characteristics, advantages, and
difficulties related to the use of building plasters with natural bases. Plasters made of clay, lime,
gypsum, and natural fibres are only a few examples of natural-based materials that are contrasted
with synthetic counterparts. The review examines the thermal resistance, mould resistance, VOC
retention, physical strength, and characteristics of various plasters while also examining the
importance of indoor air quality and any potential health advantages of utilising construction
materials with natural bases. The study also outlines the difficulties and impediments to the use
of building plasters with natural bases, such as financial viability, building norms and
regulations, and the requirement for case studies of successful implementation.To encourage the
broad use of building plasters made from natural materials, this literature study concludes with
recommendations for industry experts and politicians.

Benthic biomonitoring
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Stoney Lake is in Peterborough County, approximately 30 km northeast of the City of Peterborough. The majority of residences situated along the lake are summer cottages, with many properties having docks and recreational motorboats. The lake straddles the border of the Canadian Shield and the St. Lawrence Lowlands physiographic regions.
Since 2020, U-Links has partnered with Upper Stoney Lake Association (USLA), Trent University, and Fleming College to monitor and report on the lake’s benthic macroinvertebrate populations. This study is currently in year three of a proposed total of five years, after which a baseline knowledge will be reached regarding the lake’s macroinvertebrate species richness and diversity. Research spanning five years is considered long-term, and the data in such studies has a high level of validity. Macroinvertebrates serve as excellent bioindicators of overall littoral ecosystem health. With five years' worth of macroinvertebrate data, trends may be recognized and recommendations for the future can be made.
Several areas of concern make Stoney Lake a good candidate for continued research. According to E. Paleczny (personal communication, December 5, 2022), the stressors to aquatic ecosystem integrity of Stoney Lake include climate change, invasive species (e.g., Nitellopsis obtusa (starry stonewort (SSW))), decline in water quality (e.g., nutrient input, blue-green algal blooms, chemical contaminants), water level fluctuation, and development pressures (e.g., marina's, golf courses, proposed condo and tiny home developments, shoreline development, watershed scale impacts from forestry, mining and agriculture). E. Paleczny (personal communication, December 5, 2022) further stated that the synergistic effects of these stressors are resulting in rapid decline in healthy populations of aquatic species (e.g., walleye), increases in the number of species at risk (e.g., wood turtle), and increased eutrophication leading to increased occurrence and abundance of algal blooms. There are also many unseen effects including increased toxic effects on aquatic life.
Excess algae growth may be fueled by phosphorus and nutrient runoff from the golf course and cottage lawns. If algae growth increases dramatically, lake eutrophication may occur, which would have detrimental effects on animal populations. Algae blooms increase the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) level by encouraging the growth of specific bacteria (Encyclopedia.com, 2019). A greater BOD rapidly reduces oxygen levels, which can cause fish and other aquatic animals to lose their oxygen supply.
In 2022, there were no observable impacts or changes in macroinvertebrate species presence at a lake scale, however, this study does not address localized impacts from stressors or other shifts or changes in aquatic ecosystem function. It also does not address any changes to baseline conditions prior to 2020. Increasing sampling sites where there are concerns about localized stressors such as development impacts would help to assess if there are localized impacts to macroinvertebrate populations.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Carrion beetles use decaying flesh as a resource for food and mating therefore, they play
an important role in the physical decomposition of organic matter and thus can play an important
role in forensic investigations. We conducted a survey of Silphidae in Glebe Park, Haliburton,
from June 2022 to September 2022. The area of Glebe Park is located Ontario Shield ecozone
and Georgian Bay ecoregion and is located in a mixed forest habitat. We set four bottle traps in
Glebe Park in an effort to update the known distributions of Silphids, determine environmental
factors and their effects on abundance, and if any present species have implications for species at
risk in the Haliburton region of Ontario. A total of 1,308 Silphidae beetles were collected and
consisted of five species: Nicrophorus tomentosus, Nicrophorus pustulatus, Nicrophorus sayi,
Nicrophorus defodiens, and Oiceoptoma noveboracense. Nicrophorus tomentosus was the most
abundant species found consisting of 991 specimens in total. Nicrophorus pustulatus, N. sayi, N.
defodiens, and O. noveboracense were found in totals of 131, 116, 64 and 6 respectively. Out of
the environmental factors that were analyzed, it appears that mean wind speed and mean dew
point are the greatest factors in Silphidae abundance. When wind speed is higher, there is a
decrease in the abundance of Silphidae, but when there is an increase in dew point, there is also
an increase of Silphidae.

Shoreline restoration
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The Minden Riverwalk is a two-kilometer walkway located in Minden, Ontario, that was originally composed of solely turfgrass between the paved walkway and shoreline. However, an initiative was taken to plant various native plants, various trees, and set up garden boxes along the path to promote flora biodiversity and mitigate waterfowl nesting in residential areas within Minden. The newly formed ecosystem now serves as a multipurposed natural ‘garden’, providing a beautiful scenery for the local and visiting communities alike, as well as essential food services, shelter, and nesting grounds for a plethora of insects.
The Haliburton County Gardeners initiated a project to assess and catalogue the presence of insects and flora, in order to further understand the biodiversity present along the Riverwalk but also to look at the range of pollinators that were aiding in pollination, as well as other insect and plant interaction that were occurring along the Riverwalk. This information would be compiled for a self-guided audio tour, which would be made public online for the town and any visitors curious about the ecology of the Riverwalk.

Prairie Restoration
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Abbey Gardens, a non-profit organization located in Haliburton County, Ontario, is dedicated to educating the public about eco-friendly agricultural practices and environmentally sustainable living. As part of their initiatives, Abbey Gardens has restored a 3.45-acre patch of land within their property to a tallgrass prairie (TGP) habitat. This restoration project involved the installation of native shrubs, flowers, and grasses characteristic of natural TGPs, and the area has been actively managed since its inception. The objective of this study is to assess the ecological success of the restored TGP habitat through biological monitoring. While the computed biotic indices did not exhibit strong significance due to a limited sample size and restricted sampling period, the overall ecological state of Abbey Gardens' TGP is promisingly functional. The restoration and management efforts have effectively transformed a once barren car park into a thriving ecosystem. This successful restoration project provides valuable insights that can be applied to revitalizing the fragmented and endangered tallgrass prairies across Southern Ontario.

Benthic biomonitoring
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The Ontario Benthic Biomonitoring Network (OBBN) employs an effects-based approach using macroinvertebrate-based sampling to assess ecosystem health. This study utilizes benthic macroinvertebrates as bioindicators to understand the ecosystem health of Koshlong Lake in Ontario. The OBBN protocol categorizes macroinvertebrates into 27 groups based on taxonomic classification, providing a comprehensive understanding of the benthic community. Water chemistry analysis and examination of macroinvertebrate diversity and abundance calculations are also included, with the results being contrasted against proportions of sensitive taxa and their correlated "typical" ranges for the region. The presence of the invasive Spiny Waterflea is noted but not extensively studied in this project. Furthermore, diversity index values align with observations from other lakes in the region, indicating a healthy ecosystem. However, additional data collected over at least five years is necessary to establish long-term trends and determine if the observed values represent typical conditions for Koshlong Lake. Collaborating with the Koshlong Lake Association, this study provides valuable insights into the stressors and overall health of the lake ecosystem.

Diversified care programming
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The Abbey Retreat Centre (ARC) provides diverse programming designed for persons facing a cancer diagnosis alongside their key caregiver. It sought an evaluation tool capable of continually assessing performance and outcomes across its many retreats and online programs. This paper and project reflect the pursuit of said task. The key research question in formulating a tool of best fit then became ‘what is the most appropriate retreat-specific and cross-cutting performance measures to include in an evaluation tool for the Abbey Retreat Centre?’. Completing a literature review to understand best practice and performance measures of significance within similar retreat centers, a draft evaluation tool was created. Subsequently, semi-structured interviews were organized, where respondents provided feedback on the draft tool which informed the final version.

Lake Management Plan
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Drag and Spruce Lakes, located in the Haliburton Highlands of Ontario, are the head lakes in the Burnt River Watershed; the Drag and Spruce Lake Property Owners Association (DSLPOA) works in conjunction with the Federation of Ontario Cottagers Association (FOCA) to ensure the lakes' health, biodiversity, beauty, and recreational value are preserved. To achieve this, DSLPOA implements various stewardship strategies, such as promoting proper maintenance of watercraft and volunteer-based programs like the Lake Partner Program (LPP). These strategies aim to encourage shoreline landowners and lake users to adopt best management practices voluntarily, benefiting the entire community and securing the lakes' future health. In future conservation efforts, it is recommended to continue implementing these programs while also identifying priority areas for focused management actions. Collaborative efforts involving relevant stakeholders, such local community members, DSLPOA members, the Community Advisory Panel, and the Science and Technical Committee, should be engaged in to determine the level of priority, rationale, responsible agents, and specific initiatives for each action.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
The Fred & Pearl Barry Wetland Reserve is a 100 acre property that includes
approximately 62 acres of wetland. It was donated to HHLT in 2012 by Dennis Barry.
The property is located at the southern end of South Lake, in the Township of Minden
Hills, Haliburton. The area is located at the headwaters of the provincially significant
wetland, the Kendrick Creek Wetland Complex, which feeds into the Irondale and Burnt
Rivers. In 2021, in cooperation with Glenside Ecological Services LTD this wetland
reserve was designated within a large wildlife corridor, The Highlands Corridor, and was
recognized to have features that are resilient to the effects of climate change. The
wetland reserve’s land was donated in 2012 by Dennis Barry through the Government
of Canada’s Ecological gifts program (HHLT, 2023). Unfortunately, due to the relative
sensitivity of the wetland and the mixed terrain that can pose safety risks to humans, it
is not available to the public

Benthic biomonitoring
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
Bob Lake is an inland lake located in Minden, Ontario, that is home to the Bob Lake
Association. We completed a benthic macroinvertebrate assessment of the lake
following Ontario Benthic Biomonitoring Network (OBBN) protocol using samples
collected in the fall of 2022. The goal of this assessment is to contribute to a 5-year
study establishing the baseline conditions of Bob Lake and the benthic invertebrate
communities that inhabit it. Only one year has been completed prior to the submission
of this report, which accounts for the second year. The results of this research will
contribute to lake monitoring data and advise the Bob Lake Association on future lake
management decisions. Using the random teaspoon sampling method, we identified
100 invertebrates from each replicate of the three sites sampled. We then evaluated the
results of each site using several indices of species diversity and richness. Our
evaluation shows that the lake conditions are within a normal range for the Haliburton
area, but the remaining three years of this study must be completed to effectively
confirm these results.

Benthic Biomonitoring
Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This community-based research project focuses on evaluating the baseline composition of benthic macroinvertebrate communities in Grace Lake as part of the Woodlands and Waterways EcoWatch initiative. Benthic macroinvertebrates, small aquatic organisms inhabiting the sediment at the bottom of water bodies, serve as indicators of water quality due to their sensitivity to environmental stressors. The project involved sampling benthic macroinvertebrates and assessing water quality at three sites in Grace Lake. The identified invertebrates were categorized into 27 groups, and various indices were calculated to assess the lake's ecological condition. The results indicate that Grace Lake exhibits typical conditions compared to other lakes in the Haliburton Region. The ongoing data collection will contribute to establishing a five-year baseline dataset and enable the detection of any future negative trends in water quality or ecological integrity.

Abstract
A summary of the resource.
This study focuses on the declining population of loon chicks in Bob and Little Bob Lake, located in Haliburton County, Ontario. Despite the presence of breeding pairs, residents have observed a significant decrease in the number of loon chicks over the past few years, raising concerns about potential underlying issues. To address this, several suggestions for future actions are proposed within this report. Raising awareness about the decline in the loon population is crucial, and educational efforts targeting residents can inspire them to take actions to mitigate threats such as litter or boat wake. Implementing signage in vulnerable areas, similar to successful initiatives on Miskwabi Lake, can contribute to protecting the loons. By implementing these suggested measures, it is hoped that the declining population of loon chicks in Bob and Little Bob Lake can be addressed and reversed, ensuring the long-term conservation of these iconic bird species.
