    The data set represents the annual and monthly (July, August and September) runoff coefficient for each of the Water Survey of Canada’s HYDAT stream gauges of the Southwestern Hudson Bay and Nelson River watershed systems. Since 2010, the Provincial Mapping Unit of the Ministry of Natural Resources has produced a series of hydrology and climate statistics data sets for the Southwestern Hudson Bay and Nelson River watershed systems. This information: * is pivotal to hydrologic modelling and land use planning including climate change * can be used to sustainably manage water resources in the Far North region We are no longer updating this data. It is best suited for historical research and analysis.

    A sinkhole is a natural depression or hole in the Earth's surface which may have various causes. Most natural sinkholes are caused by the chemical dissolution of water-soluble carbonate rocks or gypsum. Sinkholes may vary in size from 1 to 600 m both in diameter and depth. Sinkholes may be formed gradually or by sudden collapse and are found worldwide in ‘karst areas.’ Karst areas are not unique to Nova Scotia; in fact, they occur in over a quarter of the earth’s surface. As a result, there are well-established methods for reducing karst risks. These include actions that can be taken both at the planning and construction stage of a project, as well as on-going actions that reduce the risk of future sinkhole formation. This dataset was developed to show areas of Nova Scotia where there is a relatively high-medium-low risk of encountering karst and naturally occurring sinkholes caused by soluble bedrock.
