This dataset contains measurements of water (chemistry and algal pigments) and sediment (chemistry and size fraction) quality in nearshore areas of Lake Huron surrounding cage aquaculture operations including North Channel, Manitoulin Island and Georgian Bay. Seasonal ice-free monitoring and sampling occurred in Ontario nearshore areas between 1998-2016. The dataset also contains the limits of detection and quantification for the parameters measured, GPS coordinates and depths (sample, Secchi, composite and maximum) for the lake sampling locations.

The mapping of flow beds during periods of low water or in a retention basin in the City of Laval can only be used for information purposes. Any drainage bed present on a site must be analyzed, as part of an environmental study carried out by the applicant for a permit or authorization certificate, in order to confirm whether it is a ditch or a watercourse. The map can be modified at any time by the City of Laval to reflect the most up-to-date data it has.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
