Environment and Climate Change Canada

Long-term freshwater quality monitoring data for two sites in the Winnipeg River basin 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...

The Orbiting Carbon Observatory 2 (OCO-2) is a National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) satellite launched in 2014. Although OCO-2 was not designed for monitoring power plant emissions, in some cases, carbon dioxide (CO2) observations from OCO-2 can be used to quantify daily CO2...

This dataset contains 21 statistics of wind and waves calculated from hourly reanalysis data of historical surface winds and ocean surface waves for the Canadian Beaufort Sea for the period 1970-2015 (each statistic has an annual and 12 monthly values). These data can be used for characterization...

This dataset consists of CLASS (Canadian Land Surface Scheme) simulations for ALMIP2 (AMMA [African Monsoon Multidisciplinary Analysis] Land Surface Model Intercomparison Project, Phase 2). The results of the intercomparison is published in the paper "Streamflows over a West African Basin from...

The Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis (CCCma) Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) Dataset provides the Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) node on an internationally-coordinated system of climate model data dissemination developed specifically for the World Climate...

This global dataset contains monthly, seasonal and annual statistics mean and maximum of significant wave height Hs that were produced using a statistical modelling approach and the 6-hourly sea level pressure SLP fields simulated by 20 global climate models participated in the Coupled...

The Continuous Non-Methane Hydrocarbon (NMHC) Measurements Study was a measurement program carried out at the Centre for Atmospheric Research Experiments (CARE) at Egbert, ON. Approximately 30 C2 to C8 hydrocarbons were collected and analyzed every three hours by an automated, in-situ gas...

Three hybrid vehicles equipped with AMMOS units were deployed during the 2015 Pan Am and Parapan Am Games as part of the high-resolution atmospheric monitoring network, the Mesonet, built by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) in support of the Games. AMMOS vehicles travelled prescribed...

Environment and Climate Change Canada's (ECCC’s) air quality model, Global Environmental Multiscale – Model of Atmospheric Chemistry (GEM-MACH v2), was run at high spatial resolution to generate daily forecasts for the Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) at Pan Am sporting venue locations and for...

This daily forecast describes the ice edge using latitude and longitude coordinates, the total ice concentration, the predominant ice stage of development and the concentration of the oldest ice type. Warnings are issued as appropriate. The forecasts are valid from the time of issue until the end...

Warnings are issued as appropriate. The forecasts are valid from the time of issue until the end...

The Canadian Ice Service acquires Synthetic Aperture Radar Satellite imagery in order to have data available for the provision of ice information. Upon request of specific clients, Synthetic Aperture Radar imagery will be analysed in more detail than for the daily ice charts and these image...

The Ice Thickness Program Collection contains ice thickness and snow depth measurements for 11 sites. Measurements are taken at approximately the same location every year on a weekly basis, starting after freeze-up when the ice is safe to walk on, and continuing until break-up or when the ice...

Regional ice charts show the analysis of ice conditions for a given region valid on Mondays. They are based on an analysis and integration of data from: satellite imagery, weather and oceanographic information, visual observations from ship and aircraft. Satellite imagery is collected over a few...

The Pan and Parapan American Games are a regional international summer sporting event, staged every 4 years in the year prior to the Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games. The 2015 Games were awarded to Canada on November 6, 2009, by the Pan American Sports Organization. The XVII Pan American...
