Shows areas where the health and prevalence of caribou can be linked to the attributes of the land that supports them. Ontario's Woodland Caribou Recovery Strategy (2008) provides advice and recommendations on the approaches needed for the recovery of Woodland Caribou. The strategy recommends the identification of ranges and local populations to: * maintain existing, self-sustaining, genetically-connected local populations of caribou * ensure security for and (reproductive) connections among currently isolated mainland caribou * re-establish caribou in strategic areas to create self-sustaining local populations and ensure connectivity Instructions for downloading this dataset: * select the link below and scroll down the metadata record page until you find **Transfer Options** in the **Distribution Information** section, * select the link beside the **Data for download** label, * you must provide your name, organization and email address in order to access the dataset This product requires the use of GIS software. *[GIS]: geographic information system

Volumes of water taken daily and annually under a Permit-to-Take-Water, as reported to the ministry under the Water Taking and Transfer Regulation 387/04. The Ontario Water Resources Act (Act) requires anyone who takes more than 50,000 litres of water in a day to obtain a Permit to take Water (PTTW) with some exceptions. Under the Act, the Water Taking and Transfer Regulation requires all holders of a PTTW to report the volume of water taken at each permitted source for each day of water taking. The data includes information from the permit on the purpose of the water taking, water source types and locations, as well as the daily and annual volume of water taken from each source.

It also includes meteorological conditions from monitoring stations in south-central Ontario. __Lakes__ The data for lakes includes sampling location details and measurements such as: * temperature (1976-2021) * dissolved oxygen levels (1976-2021) * water transparency __Streams__ The data for streams includes measurements such as stream flow discharge from monitoring stations in south-central Ontario. (1976-2019) __Meteorological conditions__ This dataset contains meteorological conditions for climate stations close to monitored lakes in south-central Ontario. It includes measurements such as: * air temperature (1976-2020) * humidity (1976-2020) * precipitation (1976-2020) * wind speed (1976-2020) Data were collected since 1976 as part of routine monitoring of water quality of inland waters and for scientific and research purposes.
