Anadromous Arctic char ( Salvelinus alpinus ) and northern form Dolly Varden ( Salvelinus malma malma ) are highly valued by Indigenous communities in northern Canada. Rapid, ongoing environmental changes are affecting populations of both of these iteroparous species, and understanding variability in life‐history tactics is essential for assessment of current and future impacts. The Coppermine River, Nunavut, provides a unique...
