Expanded Geographic Area (M9, M10, M11a, M12, BI1, RI1, SL1, SL2, QU1 [2013] and M9, M10, M11a, M12, BI1, BU1, BU2, RI1, SL1, SL2, QU1, MC2 [2011-March 2018]) Water quality chemistry data for 17 sites in the lower Athabasca River (LAR), the Peace and Slave rivers, and their tributaries, including...

Shallow groundwater and the interaction of these waters with surface water in the mineable area of the Athabasca oil sands region are being examined to assess the role and importance of groundwater in the regional river ecosystems. Groundwater quality chemistry data is available from 182 shallow...

Water chemistry data with geographic coordinates from lakes primarily in the Sudbury area of Ontario since 1981. Several lakes spread throughout the Sudbury acid rain damage zone had a natural buffering capacity protecting them from experiencing a severe drop in lake pH. Twenty-two of these lakes...

In 2017, the Ministry of Environment, Conservation, and Parks collected water and sediment from the Jackfish Bay ‘Area of Concern in Recovery’ study area, which included Moberley Bay, Tunnel Bay, and far-field sites in Jackfish Bay. This ‘Area of Concern in Recovery’ has been designated under...

Dataset includes 8 water quality surveys conducted between May and September 2021 at 4 stations in Hamilton Harbour by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) staff. The 4 stations surveyed by MECP are Environment and Climate Change Canada’s 4 long-term monitoring...

Tributary Biomonitoring (Lower Athabasca River) Benthic macroinvertebrates, comprising insects, crusteaceans, molluscs and worms, represent a group of organisms used widely in environmental monitoring programs as early warning indicators to assess the effects of change in water quality...

The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators (CESI) program provides data and information to track Canada's performance on key environmental sustainability issues. The Releases of harmful substances to water indicators track facility-based releases to water of 3 substances that are...

Deltaic Wetlands Biomonitoring Wetland macroinvertebrates, comprising insects, crustaceans, molluscs and worms represent a group of organisms forming a critical food resource for consumer organisms (e.g. fish, birds), that are used widely in environmental monitoring programs to assess both the...

The plate contains four maps showing the Hardness of Surface Water, Total Dissolved Solids of Surface Waters, Turbidity of Surface Waters and the Chemical Quality of Typical Surface Waters of Canada. These water quality maps were based on data collected from 1970 and 1971 at national river...

The map shows the locations of water quality network stations operated by the federal Water Quality Branch, Department of Fisheries and the Environment, and the provincial Water Quality Branches of Quebec, Ontario, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia. The federal and provincial monitoring...
