Percentage of land fleets that are serviceable to meet training and readiness requirements

The Departmental Results Framework (DRF) is the strategic view of Defence’s mandate, displaying its Core Responsibilities and key performance information. It represents the corporate framework used to demonstrate plans, achievements, expenditures and performance results. This helps Canadians and parliamentarians understand what we do, what we seek to achieve, and how we will determine if we have achieved it. 

This dataset presents the DRF 2.2 entitled “Military equipment is ready for training and operations” and its 2.2.2 indicator entitled “ % of land key fleets that are serviceable to meet training and readiness requirements”. This indicator shows the extent to which the Canadian Army’s (CArmy) land key fleets are in a mechanical state of readiness to be used (serviceable) for assigned missions. It presents the targets to be achieved each fiscal for the indicator as well the results showing whether or not it was achieved.

National Defence Program Alignment Architecture (PAA)

Having a robust Program Alignment Architecture (PAA) is a fundamental part of the Canadian
Government’s policy on Management, Resources, and Results Structures (MRRS).
This policy reinforces the government’s commitment to continually strengthen its management
and accountability of public expenditures by providing a robust framework by which
to link the use of resources to the achievement of results.  The PAA for the Department of National Defence came into effect in April 2014.  The PAA has since been replaced by the Department Results Framework(DRF) dataset (Ref: OD-2021-00004). The link to the new dataset can be found in the "homepage" section of this dataset.

Data from active space investigations with spruce budworm and spongy moth

Active space, the area over which a stimulus elicits a behavioural reaction in a receiving individual, is an important yet seldom investigated aspect of insect behaviour. It defines the spatial scale over which insects interact with a stimulus and can influence mating success and population dynamics. From an applied perspective, active space is an important component of the effective range of semiochemical-baited traps used for surveillance of forest and agricultural insects. This study used wingfanning assays, competitive trapping, and portable electroantennography to investigate the active space of spruce budworm, _Choristoneura fumiferana_ Clemens (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) pheromone-baited traps. Wingfanning assays and portable electroantennography were also used to investigate the active space of and spongy moth, _Lymantria dispar dispar_ L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) pheromone-baited traps.

Acesulfame, sucralose, and chloride concentrations in septic systems and their effluent discharge zones

Between 2015 and 2019, water samples were collected from seven septic systems in Ontario for analysis of wastewater tracer concentrations. These samples were collected from the septic tanks as well as from groundwater along the septic effluent flow paths. In addition, water samples were collected from a small stream impacted by multiple septic systems in a small rural community. The three wastewater tracers included in this data set are two artificial sweeteners, acesulfame and sucralose, and chloride. Information on the analytical methods used and interpretation of the dataset can be found in the following peer-reviewed publication: Water Research 184: 116124.

Probability of Ice freeze days (herbaceous crops) in dormant period (< -15°C)

The probability (likelihood) of ice freeze days for herbaceous crops during in a dormant period (ifd_herb_dorm_prob). The number of days in the forecast period with a minimum temperature below the frost temperature. It is -15°C for herbaceous crops over the dormant period.   
  
  Week 1 and week 2 forecasted probability is available daily from November 1 to March 31.  
  
  Week 3 and week 4 forecasted probability is available weekly (Thursday) from November 1 to March 31.  
  
  Over-wintering crops are biennial and perennial field crops such as herbaceous plants (strawberry, alfalfa, timothy, and many other forage crops) and woody fruit trees (apple, pear, peach, cherry, plum, apricot, chestnut, pecan, grape, etc.). These crops normally grow and develop in the growing season and become dormant in the non-growing season. However, extreme weather and climate events such as cold waves in the growing season and ice freezing events during the winter are a major constraint for their success of production and survival in Canada. The winter survival of these plants depends largely on agrometeorological conditions from late autumn to early spring, especially ice-freezing damage during the winter season.    
  
  Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) and Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) have together developed a suite of extreme agrometeorological indices based on four main categories of weather factors: temperature, precipitation, heat, and wind.  The extreme weather indices are intended as short-term prediction tools and generated using ECCC’s medium range forecasts to create a weekly index product on a daily and weekly basis.

Cool wave days for cool season/overwintering crops (< 5°C)

Cool Wave Days are the number of days in the forecast period with a minimum temperature below the cardinal minimum temperature, the lowest temperature at which crop growth will begin (dcw_cool). This temperature is 5°C for cool season crops.  
  
  Week 1 and week 2 forecasted index is available daily from April 1 to October 31.  
  
  Week 3 and week 4 forecasted index is available weekly (Thursday) from April 1 to October 31.  
  
  Cool season crops require a relatively low temperature condition. Typical examples include wheat, barley, canola, oat, rye, pea, and potato. They normally grow in late spring and summer, and mature between the end of summer and early fall in the southern agricultural areas of Canada. The optimum temperature for such crops is 25°C.
