Atmospheric concentrations and deposition rates of particulate elements are important indicators for determining the potential impacts of the oil sands industries on the local environment. The datasets consist of measured ambient air concentrations (in PM2.5 and PM2.5-10) and estimated deposition...

Precipitation measurements in the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) surface network are a necessary component for monitoring weather and climate and are required for flood and water resource forecasting, numerical weather prediction and many other applications that impact the health...

As part of research projects in Environment and Climate Change Canada, historical physical limnology observations have been collected in Canadian Lakes since 1968. These observations include one or more concurrent measurements of water temperature profiles, directional velocities (east-west and...

This dataset contains annual algal bloom indices (duration, extent, intensity, severity) summary statistics (maximum, mean) over the June through October monitoring period for Lake Erie. These data are derived from satellite remote sensing algorithms using European Space Agency's (ESA's) MEdium...

The Great Lakes Basin Integrated Nutrient Dataset compiles and standardizes phosphorus, nitrogen, and suspended solids data collected between the 2000-2019 water years from multiple Canadian and American sources around the Great Lakes. Ultimately, the goal is to enable regional nutrient data...

Total gaseous mercury (TGM) data are currently collected by Environment and Climate Change Canada at two Wood Buffalo Environmental Association (WBEA) Air Monitoring Stations (AMS). Preliminary, hourly averaged TGM data from the oil sands region are available for: WBEA AMS 6 - Patricia McInnes,...
