PURPOSE: Estimation of Atlantic salmon smolt abundance in the Restigouche watershed. DESCRIPTION: Each spring (May-June), DFO installs a Rotary Screw Trap (RST; smolt wheel) on the Kedgwick river, a tributary of the Restigouche River. The number of individuals of each species of fish caught in the trap is recorded, and length and weight are measured for a portion of Atlantic salmon smolts captured. All Atlantic salmon smolts captured in the RST are tagged with uniquely-numbered polyethylene streamer tags and released upstream of the trap with the intention of using their rate of recapture to estimate the efficiency of the trap and the abundance of smolts (Capture-Mark-Recapture experiment). PARAMETERS COLLECTED: species counts (ecological); point (spatial); capture-mark-recapture data for Atlantic salmon smolts (ecological) NOTES ON QUALITY CONTROL: The data is stored in a relational database and therefore benefits from referential integrity between tables and observations. The database also defines data types for columns of the tables, ensuring a degree of consistency across observations. The field data sheets are also entered into a web app which provides an additional layer of quality control. USE LIMITATION: To ensure scientific integrity and appropriate use of the data, we would encourage you to contact the data custodian.

PURPOSE: To track juvenile Atlantic salmon densities. DESCRIPTION: Indices of freshwater production are derived annually from electrofishing surveys in the rivers of Nova Scotia flowing into the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Fixed site sampling for juvenile salmon has been conducted most consistently since the mid-1980s for these rivers. Juvenile salmon abundances at sites, in terms of number of fish per habitat area sampled by age or size group (densities), are obtained using successive removal sampling or catch per unit effort sampling calibrated to densities. Sampling intensities vary among years and among rivers. PARAMETERS COLLECTED: distribution (ecological); species counts (ecological); point (spatial) USE LIMITATION: To ensure scientific integrity and appropriate use of the data, we would encourage you to contact the data custodian.

2014 to 2023 pelagic fish group richness in the Estuary and Gulf of St.Lawrence estimated by the number of species found in each grid cell 10 km x 10 km. Input data are from the annual August and September multidisciplinary surveys. Purpose Since 1990, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans has been conducting an annual multidisciplinary survey in the Estuary and northern Gulf of St. Lawrence using a standardized protocol. In the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence, these bottom trawl surveys has been carrying out each September since 1971. These missions are an important source of information about the status of the marine ressources. The objectives of the surveys are multiple: to estimate the abundance and biomass of groundfish and invertebrates, to identify the spatial distribution and biological characteristics of these species, to monitor the biodiversity of the Estuary and Gulf and finally, to describe the environmental conditions observed in the area at the moment of the sampling. The southern Gulf surveys are realized using the following standardized protocol: Hurlbut,T. and D.Clay (eds) 1990. Protocols for Research Vessel Cruises within the Gulf Region (Demersal Fish) (1970-1987). Can. MS Rep. Fish. Aquat. Sci. No. 2082: 143p.

The Ministry of Education (MEQ) calculates two deprivation indices annually for the 69 school service centers and linguistic school boards, namely: • the Socio-Economic Environment Index (IMSE), which is made up of the proportion of families with children whose mothers do not have a diploma, certificate or degree (representing two-thirds of the weight of the index) and the proportion of households whose parents were not employed during the reference week of the Canadian census (which represents a third of the weight of the index). • the Low Income Threshold Index (LFR) corresponds to the proportion of families with children whose income is close to or below the low income threshold. The low-income cut-off is defined as the income level at which families are estimated to spend 20% more than the overall average on food, housing, and clothing. It provides information that is used to estimate the proportion of families whose incomes can be considered low, taking into account the size of the family and the environment of residence (rural region, small urban area, large agglomeration, etc.). For the 2025-2026 school year, the socio-economic data used are extracted from the 2021 Canadian census and relate to the situation of Quebec families with at least one child aged 0 to 18. Depending on their geographical position, these families are grouped together in one of the 3,857 settlement units established by the Ministry. The annual school indices are grouped in decimal rank in order to locate the relative position of the school among all public schools, for primary and secondary education. Note that schools may include more than one school building, that no index is calculated for school boards with special status (Cree, Kativik and Littoral) and that only schools with 30 students or more are selected (without an MEQ-MSSS agreement). For the 2025-2026 school year, 675 primary schools and 204 secondary schools are in deciles 8, 9 or 10 according to the IMSE index and make up the group of schools said to be in more disadvantaged areas. These schools respectively welcome a total of 158,089 and 118,906 students, representing 30.1% and 30.2% of the public network for each of these two levels of education. **This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

Every year, since 1967, the Ministère des Forêts, de la Faune et des Parcs (MFFP) has been conducting an aerial survey of damage caused by the main insects and diseases that attack trees. This fact sheet focuses exclusively on data on damage caused by spruce budworm (TBE). The aerial survey is carried out in sectors previously determined according to the damage of the previous year and the results of inventories to predict the populations of this insect. From 2013 to 2022, the DPF acquired aerial survey videos to obtain additional observer data. Since 2023, high-resolution geotagged images have replaced videos.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**

The database on uses related to the aquatic environment (URMA) is a database consisting of information on water-related activities collected by representatives of the General Directorate for Monitoring the State of the Environment (DGSEE) of the Ministry of the Environment, the Fight against Climate Change, Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks (MELCCFP) and by the watershed organizations responsible for implementing the integrated management of the water at the watershed scale. Uses related to the aquatic environment can be classified into four main categories: uses practiced in coastal recreational areas, uses involving indirect contact with water, uses involving direct contact with water and finally, uses involving water sampling. Please consult the Lexicon of uses related to the aquatic environment for a description of each of the types of uses listed in the URMA bank.**This third party metadata element was translated using an automated translation tool (Amazon Translate).**
