The Water Survey of Canada provided a digital archive of river ice thickness measurements at four hydrometric monitoring stations along the Liard River. The average ice thickness measurements were extracted and compiled to the attached .csv file. The stations include: Liard River at Upper...

In 2006, the Government of Canada initiated the Chemicals Management Plan (CMP), which takes action regarding chemicals that are harmful to human health or the environment. One element of the CMP is Monitoring and Surveillance, which generates data on the presence and levels of chemical...

Over the past five decades, many lakes, ponds, and wetlands (generically termed basins) of the Peace Sector of the Peace-Athabasca Delta (PAD), a significant component of the Wood Buffalo National Park (WBNP), have experienced drying trends in-between infrequent flooding generated by major spring...

The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators (CESI) program provides data and information to track Canada's performance on key environmental sustainability issues. The Water quality in Canadian rivers indicators provide a measure of the ability of river water across Canada to support...

Historical water quality data measured on a continuous basis at over 23 locations across Canada is included in this dataset. Most locations include hourly temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductance and turbidity. Data are collected by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) and...

We studied the community structure of crustacean zooplankton along the biogeographical zones of the St. Lawrence River (Québec, Canada), to evaluate how the riverscale hydrological network formed by water masses, and local-scale aquatic environment, influenced the distribution of zooplankton...

This project examined the use of parasites of slimy sculpin (Cottus cognatus) as indicators of water quality in the Athabasca River. Specimens of C. cognatus were sampled from four tributaries to assess patterns of helminth parasite community structure in this fish and to study the composition...

As part of the sediment stability study in the priority area (Areas of Concern) of St Laurent River near Cornwall, ADCP instruments were deployed during the summer of 2022 to collect the flow data in the river. The data collection program is part of GLAP. The field experiments were carried out...

National Water Monitoring Program for Pesticides (NWMPP) water quality data are presented for a network of freshwater sites across Canada. A two-year pilot program is being conducted in partnership between Health Canada (HC), Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC), and Agriculture and...

Long-term freshwater quality monitoring data for one site in the North Shore - Gaspé basin for the past 15 years or longer for nutrients, metals, major ions, and other physical-chemical variables are included in this dataset. Monitoring is conducted by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC)...
