Hamilton Harbour is a 2200 ha embayment located at the west end of Lake Ontario It was designated as one of 43 Areas of Concern in 1987 under the GLWQA where 11 beneficial uses of the harbour were deemed impaired. One of the primary recommendations of the Hamilton Harbour Remedial Action Plan...

Coastal wetlands are valued for their diversity of wildlife, habitats, and functions. The Canadian Wildlife Service (CWS) conducted vegetation and elevation surveys between 2009 and 2019, and bathymetric and light attenuation surveys between 2018 and 2019 in coastal wetlands across the Canadian...

Data Sources: Banque informatisée des oiseaux de mer au Québec (BIOMQ: ECCC-CWS Quebec Region) Atlantic Colonial Waterbird Database (ACWD: ECCC-CWS Atlantic Region).. Both the BIOMQ and ACWD contain records of individual colony counts, by species, for known colonies located in...

Grids surveyed is a polygon feature class containing the 5’ latitude by 5’ longitude grid cells surveyed for all seasons combined including the grids that were surveyed but where no species were seen. In order to produce maps for a specific season a selection for these grids must be performed.

Average grid cell density is a polygon feature class containing the average density value for each grid cell per species/groups and season.
