Mortality at salmon aquaculture facilities is closely monitored. As in any population of wild or farmed animals, there are a number of causes leading to death. While in-depth diagnostic testing takes time, carcasses are routinely assigned to a number of defined categories which can help facility...

This data product aimed to extend the existing pre-1985 disturbance history record by mapping wildfire, harvest, and insect outbreaks in Canadian forests between 1965 and 1984. Our geospatial data processing methodology relied on multi-layer perceptrons (MLP) trained on spectral recovery...

The Acid Sensitive Lakes Study in the Atlantic Canada was initiated in 1983 by Environment and Climate Change Canada, to evaluate the impact of acid atmospheric pollutant on aquatic ecosystem. Originally, the study focused on the aquatic and terrestrial effects of acid precipitation, but now it...

Support performance measurement for Parks Canada - 2023 24

This first version of the dataset (CanHoPmlyV1) contains homogenized time series of monthly total precipitation for 425 long-term stations in Canada. As detailed in Wang et al. (2023), it is based on the quality-controlled version 2020 of the Adjusted Daily Rainfall and Snowfall (AdjDlyRS)...

Fisheries and Oceans Canada’s (DFO’s) Pacific Aquaculture Regulations and Conditions of Licence for aquaculture in B.C. require licence holders to take various fish escape prevention measures, including maintaining infrastructure in a manner to prevent the escape of farmed fish into the...

Marine mammal predator control is governed by the Marine Mammal Regulations under the Fisheries Act. Records of marine mammal mortalities are maintained and results reported publicly. Additional licences can be obtained for control of other species. Fisheries and Oceans Canada works with industry...

The suite of gridded precipitation datasets includes the ANUSPLIN-gridded datasets of daily precipitation since 1900 (ANUSPLIN-AdjPdly), pentad average precipitation rates since 1950 (ANUSPLIN-AdjP5d), and monthly total precipitation since 1872 (ANUSPLIN-AdjPmly), on a 0.083333ºx 0.083333º...

PURPOSE: Establishing efficient, non-destructive sampling methods for clam population assessments. DESCRIPTION: In the Gulf of St. Lawrence (GSL) Management Region, clam assessments are uncommon due to limited resources and the labour-intensive nature of sampling clam beds....

This dataset covers the monitoring of benthic invertebrate communities in 11 streams or rivers in Forillon National Park since 2007. The sampling methods and techniques used for this monitoring are based on those of the Canadian Aquatic Biomonitoring Network (CABIN) established by Environment...
