This study aimed to address the toxicological effects the type-2 diabetes drug, metformin has on wild fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas). Fathead minnow embryos and adults were exposed to metformin via in-lake mesocosm and their survival, development and growth was assessed. Exposures were...

Zooplankton and phytoplankton were collected during the 56-day metformin in-lake mesocosm exposure conducted Lake 114 at the International Institute for Sustainable Development-Experimental Lakes Area (IILSD-ELA) in northern Ontario, Canada. Samples were collected three times throughout the...

This study will determine the toxic effect the pharmaceutical metformin has on an aquatic environment. Chronic exposures were conducted at Lake 114 located at the International Institute for Sustainable Development-Experimental Lakes Area (IILSD-ELA) in Ontario, Canada. Three concentrations of...

The daily water temperature (°C) dataset is reconstructed using the air2stream model (Toffolon and Piccolroaz 2015) with i) air temperature from ~10 km resolution 1980-2018 Regional Deterministic Reforecast System, version 2.1 (Gasset et al. 2021) and ii) streamflow data from the Water Survey of...

The National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) is Canada's public inventory of pollutant releases (to air, water and land), disposals and transfers for recycling. Each file contains facility-reported data listed by facility and substance for a given year. Data are presented in a table and can...

The National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) is Canada's public inventory of pollutant releases (to air, water and land), disposals and transfers for recycling. Each file contains annual total releases for the past five years by media (air, water or land), broken-down by province, industry or...

The National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) is Canada's public inventory of pollutant releases (to air, water and land), disposals and transfers for recycling. Each file contains data from 1993 to the latest reporting year. These CSV format datasets are in normalized or ‘list’ format and are...

Long-term freshwater quality monitoring data for Rainy River / Lake of the Woods Watershed 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)...

As part of the research program on the aquatic ecotoxicology of nanomaterials, a study was carried out using the invertebrate Hydra vulgaris in order to determine the influence that the shape of nanoparticles (sphere, cube and prism) have on the toxic potential of silver nanoparticles. The...

The Canada Nature Fund for Aquatic Species at Risk (CNFASAR) is a contribution program that focuses on providing funding for recovery and threat mitigation activities in nine priority places and to address two marine threats to aquatic species at risk. The Priority Places and Marine Threats layer...
