The Air Pollutant Emission Inventory (APEI) is an annual report of air pollutant emissions across Canada published by Environment and Climate Change Canada. The report details the release of air pollutants from all known of sources since 1990. The APEI serves many purposes, including:...

Water quality and ecosystem health data collected using a risk-based monitoring approach to support the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement are included in this dataset. By conducting regular, systematic measurements of the physical, chemical and biological conditions of the Great Lakes...

As part of a study to characterize the habitat of Canada’s only known population of Hine’s emerald dragonfly (HED), a species listed as endangered since 2011, groundwater was collected and analyzed from the eastern Minesing Wetlands near Barrie, Ontario. The water quality analyses included...

The Fish Contaminants Monitoring Program (FCMP) was initiated in 1976. The objective is to collect a variety of biological samples in freshwater environments for the purpose of determining ecosystem contaminant levels. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) collects biological samples from...

Habitat and ecosystem data used to conduct a baseline survey of coastal habitat in Lake Superior, Nipigon Bay, and Black Bay are included in this dataset. The Lake Superior Survey methodology consists of four general steps; 1) delineating the coastal ecosystem into coastal units based on water...

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...

Water quality and ecosystem health data used to conduct a cumulative effects assessment of Lake Huron and St. Marys River nearshore waters in support of the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement are included in this dataset. Data related to nearshore stressors is integrated into an overall...

Habitat and ecosystem data used to conduct a baseline survey of coastal habitat in Lake Huron, Georgian Bay, and St. Marys River are included in this dataset. The Lake Huron Survey methodology consists of four general steps; 1) delineating the coastal ecosystem into coastal units based on water...

Groundwater wells were installed in the Turkey Lakes Watershed basin in the early 1980’s. These test wells were installed in eight sub-basins of the watershed and range in depth from 0.5 to 9.7 metres. They are located on a variety of terrain throughout. The water chemistry has been sampled at...

Water quality monitoring data collected in priority tributaries to provide nutrient concentration data to estimate nutrient loads to the waters of the Great Lakes. Data is collected to advance the science to understand and address the complex problem of recurrent toxic and nuisance algae in the...
