Lake Huron Canadian Baseline Coastal Habitat Survey

Lake Huron Canadian Baseline Coastal Habitat Survey 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 flow, ecology, and geology; 2) selecting key habitat types including wetlands, uplands (natural and anthropogenic), tributaries, and inland lakes and ponds, and the measures to assess each habitat type and the entire coastal ecosystem; 3) conducting a spatial analysis and summarizing results; and 4) sharing results. 2023-02-16 Environment and Climate Change Canada open-ouvert@tbs-sct.gc.ca Nature and EnvironmentHabitatsBiological diversityEcosystemsSurveysGreat LakeswetlandsenvironmenthabitatsurveymonitoringecosystemwaterLake OntarioLake ErieLake HuronLake SuperiorOntariobaselinecoastaluplandstributariesprotectionrestorationshorelinebiodiversity View ECCC Data Mart (English)HTML https://data-donnees.ec.gc.ca/data/sites/scientificknowledge/canadian-great-lakes-baseline-coastal-habitat-survey/lake-huron-canadian-baseline-coastal-habitat-survey/English/?lang=en View ECCC Data Mart (French)HTML https://data-donnees.ec.gc.ca/data/sites/scientificknowledge/canadian-great-lakes-baseline-coastal-habitat-survey/lake-huron-canadian-baseline-coastal-habitat-survey/French/?lang=fr
