The goal of this project is to identify the colonies for which the hydrodynamic conditions allow the long-term survival of the Mingan Thistle
Phase 1
Develop a method to identify the extent of hydrodynamic conditions that are favorable to Mingan Thistle in the existing nine colonies.
Characterize the extreme hydrodynamic conditions in the current nine colonies and identify the extent of favorable hydrodynamic conditions for the Mingan Thistle in each of them.
Identify if the required hydrodynamic conditions for the Mingan Thistle’s survival will be present in or in the vicinity of the nine existing colonies for the next 50 years.
Phase 2 (option to be confirmed)
Apply the previously developed method to determine if the proposed four new sites are suitable to establish new viable colonies of Mingan Thistle over a 50-year time period.
