The toxicity of pharmaceuticals finasteride (FIN) and melengestrol acetate (MGA) was assessed in chronic (42 days) sediment tests with the amphipod Hyalella azteca. Two tests were completed for each compound. Survival, growth, reproduction and sex ratio were assessed at the end of each test.

The recent (2017) spatial patterns of zooplankton communities in 73 Québec lakes distributed over an 800-km SW-NE gradient, spanning a wide range of water quality and climate. Results were published in a scientific article that can be found here: https://doi.org/10.1139/cjfas-2020-0139

The toxicity of pharmaceuticals finasteride (FIN) and melengestrol acetate (MGA) was assessed in freshwater mussels, including an acute (48 h) aqueous tests with glochidia from Lampsilis siliquoidea, a sub-chronic (14 days) sediment test with gravid female Lampsilis fasciola, and chronic (21 and...

This dataset includes historical observations of the daily depth of snow on the ground (daily climate element 013) made at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) sites by manual ruler or by a sonic sensor equipped autostations. The history of the ECCC daily snow depth observing program is...

Jackfish Bay was identified as an Area of Concern (AOC) in 1987 due to degraded water and sediment quality and environmental health, which included impairment to benthic communities. As part of the Great Lakes Action Plan, assessments of benthic conditions in the Jackfish Bay AOC have been...

The EXCEL workbooks contained in this dataset primarily contain temporal variations of the water surface elevation (water level) at 12 locations situated along the lower Athabasca River during the 2013 spring ice breakup. This information was obtained using portable pressure (and occasionally...

The Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 (OCO-2) is a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) satellite launched in 2014. Although OCO-2 was not designed for monitoring power plant emissions, in some cases, carbon dioxide (CO2) observations from OCO-2 can be used to quantify daily CO2...

This dataset consists of CLASS (Canadian Land Surface Scheme) simulations for ALMIP2 (AMMA [African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis] Land Surface Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 2). The results of the intercomparison is published in the paper "Streamflows over a West African Basin from...

Environment and Climate Change Canada's (ECCC’s) air quality model, Global Environmental Multiscale – Model of Atmospheric Chemistry (GEM-MACH v2), was run at high spatial resolution to generate daily forecasts for the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) at Pan Am sporting venue locations and for...

Population trend estimates based on data collected through the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS), for approximately 300 Canadian bird species. The trend results are Canadian trends and thus use data from Canadian BBS routes only. Results are updated annually; these estimates use BBS data...
