The 2010 Plant Hardiness Zones of Canada outlines the different zones in Canada where various types of trees, shrubs and flowers will most likely survive. It is based on the average climatic conditions of each area. The first such map for North America, released by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1960, was based only on minimum winter temperatures. In 1967, Agriculture Canada scientists created a plant hardiness map using Canadian plant survival data and a wider range of climatic variables, including minimum winter temperatures, length of the frost-free period, summer rainfall, maximum temperatures, snow cover, January rainfall and maximum wind speed. Natural Resources Canada's Canadian Forest Service scientists have now updated the plant hardiness zones using the same variables and more recent climate data (1961-90). They have used modern climate mapping techniques and incorporated the effect of elevation. The new map indicates that there have been changes in the hardiness zones that are generally consistent with what is known about climate change. These changes are most pronounced in western Canada. The new hardiness map is divided into nine major zones: the harshest is 0 and the mildest is 8. Subzones (e.g., 4a or 4b, 5a or 5b) are also noted in the map legend. These subzones are most familiar to Canadian gardeners. Some significant local factors, such as micro-topography, amount of shelter and subtle local variations in snow cover, are too small to be captured on the map. Year-to-year variations in weather and gardening techniques can also have a significant impact on plant survival in any particular location.

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. / Classe d’entités polygonales renfermant les carrés du quadrillage de 5° de latitude par 5° de longitude visés par les relevés, toutes saisons confondues, y compris les carrés ayant fait l’objet de relevés, mais dans lesquelles aucune espèce n’a été observée. Afin de générer des cartes pour une saison en particulier, il faut faire une sélection parmi ces carrés.

Map of Canada showing location of facilities reporting direct releases to air of criteria air contaminants in 2014, by sector, and reported total quantities of these releases. The National Pollutant Release Inventory (NPRI) is Canada's public inventory of pollutant releases (to air, water and land), disposals and transfers for recycling. Under the authority of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA 1999), owners or operators of facilities in Canada that meet the published reporting requirements are required to report to the NPRI. Reported pollutants include toxic substances, air pollutants and other substances of concern. NPRI data is available for the years 1993 - 2014 in a number of formats including online query tools, downloadable datasets (along with corresponding database structure tables) and map layers. There are important factors that should be considered prior to the use and interpretation of NPRI data. Additional information is available on the NPRI web site. / Carte du Canada représentant la localisation des installations déclarant des rejets directs dans l’air de de principaux contaminants atmosphériques en 2014, par secteur et quantités totales déclarées de ces rejets. L'Inventaire national des rejets de polluants (INRP) est l'inventaire public du Canada sur les polluants rejetés (dans l'atmosphère, dans l'eau et dans le sol), éliminés et recyclés. Sous la Loi canadienne sur la protection de l'environnement (1999) (LCPE 1999), les propriétaires ou exploitants d'installations qui répondent aux critères de déclaration sont tenus de produire une déclaration à l'INRP. Les substances à déclarer incluent des substances toxiques, des polluants atmosphériques et d’autres substances d’intérêt. Les données de l’INRP sont disponibles pour les années 1993-2014 sous plusieurs formats, incluant les outils de recherche en ligne, les ensembles de données téléchargeables (celles-ci associées avec les tableaux de structure de base de données) et les couches cartographiques. Des facteurs importants devraient être considérés avant l'utilisation et l'interprétation des données de l'INRP. Des renseignements supplémentaires à ce sujet sont disponibles sur le site Web de l'INRP.
