The Nova Scotia Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture is the lead regulatory of rockweed leasing and licensing. This file illustrates all the issued rockweed leases along the coast of Nova Scotia. Fisheries and Aquaculture also provides a mapping tool for this data at: http://novascotia.ca/fish/aquaculture/site-mapping-tool/

This spatial dataset contains a summary of fishing regulations and fish sanctuary descriptions. The data includes information on: * species catch and possession limits * size limits * seasons and close times * fish sanctuaries * bait and gear restrictions * regulations for specific fisheries management zones and waterbodies This dataset is not intended for legal purposes nor is it a complete representation of current regulations. For details on the current regulations, visit: * the [Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act](https://www.ontario.ca/laws/statute/97f41), S.O. 1997 * the [Fisheries Act](https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/F-14/), R.S.C., 1985 * the [Ontario Fishery Regulations](https://www.ontario.ca/document/ontario-fishing-regulations-summary?_ga=1.18007353.1041674230.1453227955) Close times, fishing quotas and size limits established in the Ontario Fishery Regulations may be changed through variation orders.

Deployment locations and configuration details of Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs) included in the Centre for Marine Applied Research’s (CMAR) “Current Data” county datasets. The dataset for each county is available at https://data.novascotia.ca/browse?Detailed-Metadata_Department=Fisheries+and+Aquaculture&tags=coastal+monitoring+program For more information on CMAR and the Coastal Monitoring Program go to: https://cmar.ca/coastal-monitoring-program/

This dataset is complementary to the Centre for Marine Applied Research’s (CMAR) Current Data and Wave Data County datasets. The Current and Wave data are measured by Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCPs), which are typically deployed for 1 – 3 months in a single location. This Deployment Information dataset provides details for each ADCP deployment, including the variable(s) measured, the deployment location, and instrument configuration.

Locations of sampling stations for sensor strings deployed as part of the Centre for Marine Applied Research's (CMAR) Coastal Monitoring Program. Sensor strings record high-resolution temperature, dissolved oxygen, and intermittent salinity data at various depths, typically for several months. The dataset for each county is available at https://data.novascotia.ca/browse?Detailed-Metadata_Department=Fisheries+and+Aquaculture&tags=coastal+monitoring+program For more information on CMAR and the Coastal Monitoring Program go to: https://cmar.ca/reports/
