This dataset contains average concentrations of water chemistry collected from stream catchments C31, C32, C33, C34, C35, C37, C38, C39, C42, C46, C47, C49, and C50 in the Turkey Lakes Watershed, approximately 60 km northwest of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, Canada. These are average concentrations recorded from 1981-2018 in milligrams per litre (mg/L) of major ions (Ca, Mg, K, Na, SO4, Cl, NO3-N, NH4-N) and some nutrients (TP, TN) collected by the Great Lakes Forestry Centre. Samples are collected according to variable schedules such that frequency generally increased with increasing stream flow, (sampling period was shortest during spring runoff, 1-3 days, and longest during winter, 2-3 weeks). Sampling was accomplished by rinsing an appropriately cleaned 2-litre, polyethylene bottle at least 3 times with stream water followed by immersion to collect the final sample. Care was taken to not disturb the stream sediments throughout the sampling procedure. pH and conductivity testing is completed right after sampling. Other chemical analyses are completed by the Great Lakes Forestry Centre in Sault Ste. Marie within 2 weeks of collection. Sample integrity was maintained through storage in the dark at 4 degrees Celsius and analyzed at room temperature.

PURPOSE: To provide demographic parameters and relative indices of abundance for Atlantic herring in NAFO Division 4T. DESCRIPTION: The experimental gillnet survey is conducted in collaboration with Atlantic herring harvesters and uses standardized multi-mesh gillnets. Gillnets are set on spawning grounds in the spring and fall. Data (fish and sample) are collected to provide: (1) relative age-disaggregated indices of abundance, (2) an indicator of relative changes in fishery selectivity over time, and (3) information on the demographic composition of herring on the spawning grounds. PARAMETERS COLLECTED: Sample: sample location; sample weight; mesh size; length frequency Biological: length; weight; gonad weight; maturity stage (biological); sex (biological); ring count (biological) USE LIMITATION: To ensure scientific integrity and appropriate use of the data, we would encourage you to contact the data custodian.

Pacific Herring spawn index data for British Columbia from 1951 to present. Note that the spawn index is a relative index of spawning biomass. In addition, “NA" indicates that data are unavailable because they are either incomplete or withheld; contact the custodian for more information. For the "Region" column specifically, "NA" indicates that the location is outside stock assessment region boundaries. There are a few caveats to consider when interpreting Pacific Herring spawn index data, which are discussed in the technical report (see supporting documents).

Part of the Nova Scotia Topographic Database (NSTDB), the structures theme layer is updated and maintained from aerial photography, and verified with field inspections. Chimneys, Incinerators, Silos and Weigh Scales are all examples of what is found in this theme. Structure feature codes and their descriptions are provided with the download in a NSTDB feature code table.

PURPOSE: Provide early detection of newly arrived Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) and determine the spread, establishment and spatial distribution of existing AIS within marine waters of the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence (sGSL), DFO Gulf Region boundaries (northern and eastern coastal shores of NB, Gulf shore of NS, and PEI shoreline). DESCRIPTION: DFO Science monitors for AIS in the Gulf Region. The data collected from DFO's biofouling monitoring program provides an overview of the distribution and abundance of Aquatic Invasive Species (AIS) in the Gulf Region. This information can be used by the general public, scientists and DFO managers. Monitoring program targeting aquatic invasive species (AIS). Native biofouling species are not included in this dataset. Botrylloides violaceus: Violet tunicate Botryllus schlosseri: Golden star tunicate Ciona intestinalis: Vase tunicate Styela clava: Clubbed tunicate Caprella mutica*: Japanese skeleton shrimp Membranipora membranacea: Coffin box bryozoan Carcinus maenas*: European green crab Codium fragile*: Oyster thief alga Juxtacribrilina mutabilis**: Ribbed bryozoan (JCM) *indicates species that are not included as percent cover as they are not accurately captured by the sampling method, but are included as detections. **indicates species was only integrated fully into the monitoring protocol starting in 2025. Included here is a dataset of detection and percent cover data of AIS, as well as a monitoring station dataset. Environmental data collected, including from temperature loggers, are stored but not included here. PARAMETERS COLLECTED: Air and water temperature, salinity, depth, dissolved oxygen, weather conditions, list of biofouling AIS, percent cover of AIS on PVC plates, and incidental detection of other species and AIS in surrounding area. Only species data is pushed to the Open Data platform. NOTES ON QUALITY CONTROL: Each sample and species is processed and identified in a standardized fashion using standardized DFO Science AIS protocols and taxonomic references. Data is manually entered into DFO Gulf Region's AIS Science biofouling database and randomly verified for accuracy. SAMPLING METHODS: Biofouling monitoring is conducted using PVC collector plates that are deployed in the water column approximately 1 meter below the sea surface in the spring of each year. Biofouling organisms settle on these plates which are collected in the fall of the same year. Abundances of AIS are given as percent plate cover. Physico-chemical data including temperature, conductivity, and depth as well as weather conditions are noted at each geo-referenced biofouling monitoring site during initial deployment and at time of retrieval. All biofouling organisms settled on the underside of the PVC plates are noted and percent cover of each AIS is estimated. Any AIS present at the location is also noted. A HOBO temperature and light logger was deployed. USE LIMITATION: To ensure scientific integrity and appropriate use of the data, we would encourage you to contact the data custodian.
