Canada - Aeromagnetic survey data compilation

This data set consists in a compilation of data acquired by aeromagnetic surveys in Canada, gridded at a 200 m and 1 km resolution. Magnetic anomalies show small variations in the magnetic field that are caused largely by variations in the magnetic properties of Earth's crust. The first vertical derivative of magnetic anomalies is calculated from the residual magnetic field and enhances the short wavelength component of the field.  The magnetic character of a rock depends on its ferromagnetic mineral composition, its concentration and its deformational and metamorphic history. To map these variations, the Geological Survey of Canada has been acquiring aeromagnetic data since 1947. Over the years, more than 700 surveys have been carried out, generally with a flight-line spacing of 800 m and an altitude of 305 m above the ground, though since 2000 the majority of surveys have been flown with a line spacing of 400 m or less. These aeromagnetic surveys have been leveled to each other to correct for arbitrary datums, slow variations of Earth's magnetic field over time, and differing survey specifications. The dominant structural trends of geological provinces, truncation of those trends at structural boundaries, and the characteristic patterns of suture zones can be recognized on the magnetic anomaly map. The magnetic signature of Precambrian basement rocks can be seen through the Phanerozoic sedimentary basin cover. Major dyke swarms can be traced over hundreds of kilometers from their radiating linear magnetic pattern. Oceanic crust has a characteristic striped magnetic pattern that is due to changes in the polarity of Earth's magnetic field, which occur over intervals of millions of years.

Genital herpes counselling tool

Genital herpes is caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV). It is a chronic viral infection that occurs frequently among sexually active individuals. The diagnosis can trigger significant psychological, social, relationship and sexual distress for those affected. Adjusting to having genital herpes is key to managing the infection successfully and reducing the risk of transmission.

Status of major fish stocks – Status of major fish stocks, Canada

The Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators (CESI) program provides data and information to track Canada's performance on key environmental sustainability issues. The Status of major fish stocks indicator reports the status of major fish stocks. Federal biologists use a variety of scientific methods to assess fish stock levels and assign 1 of 3 stock status zones (Healthy, Cautious or Critical) by comparing the size of the stocks to reference points. If there is insufficient information to be able to determine the stock status zone, the status is uncertain. Stock status is an important element of the precautionary approach. Information is provided to Canadians in a number of formats including: static and interactive maps, charts and graphs, HTML and CSV data tables and downloadable reports. See the supplementary documentation for data sources and details on how those data were collected and how the indicator was calculated.

Departmental Results Framework 2017-2018 Edition - Indicator 1: Percentage of filers who have filed their return by their due date

This indicator measures the percentage of individuals (including self-employed filers) who filed their individual tax and benefit return (individual return) on time. It is an indicator of individual filing compliance. This value is derived by dividing the number of individual returns filed by their due date by the number of individual returns filed for a given tax year.

Provincial and territorial child protection legislation and policy - 2018

Child maltreatment is a significant Canadian and global problem that can have serious physical, psychological and emotional impacts lasting long beyond childhood. To prevent and address child maltreatment, the ongoing, systematic collection of data on child abuse and neglect reported to child welfare is essential. The federal, provincial, and territorial governments recognize the importance of surveillance in providing evidence about the contexts, risk factors and types of child maltreatment to inform policy, program, service and awareness interventions. Through their child welfare ministries, the provincial and territorial governments are responsible for assisting children in need of protection; they are also the primary source of administrative data and information related to reported child maltreatment. Each jurisdiction has its own child protection legislation and regulations; policies and practices may differ.

Source Emissions, Oil Sands Region

This Joint Oil Sands Monitoring Air Emissions Inventory (Inventory) for the oil sands region is part of the Joint Oil Sands Monitoring Program Emissions Inventory Compilation Report (Report). The Inventory is based on a synthesis of available information from several existing inventories and related emissions data sources compiled up to October 31, 2014.  The Inventory also includes input files for the Sparse Matrix Operator Kernel Emissions (SMOKE) emissions processing system, in order to allow users to create gridded input emissions files for air quality modelling.  This Inventory was developed to enhance the quality of Environment and Climate Change Canada’s high resolution forecasts and simulations of air quality in the oil sands region.  More information on the Inventory is contained in the Compilation Report including the data sources, compilation procedures, gap analysis, how some priority data gaps were addressed and recommendations for addressing other gaps.

Ecosystem Sites, Volatile Organic Compounds, Preliminary Data, Oil Sands Region

Ecosystem Sites, Volatile Organic Compounds – Preliminary Data, Oil Sands Region 
Volatile organic compounds (VOC) data are currently collected by Environment and Climate Change Canada at a Wood Buffalo Environmental Association (WBEA) Air Monitoring Station (AMS). As of September 27, 2017, raw, hourly averaged, near real-time VOC data from the oil sands region are available for WBEA AMS 25 – Waskow Ohci Pimatisiwin, located in Fort McKay, Alberta. Prior to this date, this instrument was measuring VOCs at WBEA AMS 1 – Bertha Ganter, also located in Fort McKay, Alberta. The VOCs that are currently being measured at AMS 25 are benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, m,p-xylenes, o-xylene, styrene, n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane, 2-methylpentane, and methylcyclohexane.

Alberta Ambient Air Quality Objectives (AAAQOs) exist for benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes, n-hexane, and styrene.

These data are preliminary and of unspecified quality. They are subject to significant change, can occasionally include maintenance data, and should not be used in published documents. Please do not use or distribute these files without the associated metadata. It is recommended that people wishing to use these data first consult with the Principal Investigator to better understand potential limitations.

Monitoring of volatile organic compounds (VOC) was initiated by Environment and Climate Change Canada at the Wood Buffalo Environmental Association (WBEA) Air Monitoring Station (AMS) 1 – Bertha Ganter, in Fort McKay, Alberta in October 2011. The VOC compounds that are currently being measured at AMS 1 are benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, m,p-xylenes, and o-xylene (BTEX). 

All of the validated VOC maximum hourly concentrations are below the hourly Alberta Ambient Air Quality Objectives (AAAQOs). The annual mean benzene concentrations are also below the annual AAAQO for benzene.

Remote Sensing and Modelling, Ground-based Aerosol Optical Depth, Oil Sands Region

Measurements of aerosol optical depth (AOD) using sunphotometers are being made in the oil sands region (at Fort McKay’s Oski-ôtin site, and Fort McMurray). AOD is a measure of the degree to which atmospheric aerosols absorb or scatter sunlight anywhere from the top of the atmosphere to the ground.  These tiny solid or liquid particles can have natural or anthropogenic sources including dust, sea salt, smoke, or pollutants.  

Measurements of AOD made in the oil sands region can be compared with data collected at other Canadian locations from the AErosol RObotic CANadian (AEROCAN) network, such as Kelowna, BC; Lethbridge, AB; Bratt’s Lake and Waskesiu, SK; and Yellowknife, NT. Average AOD levels measured in the oil sands region are comparable to other western Canadian sites. The AOD levels exhibit a seasonal cycle with a peak in summertime similar to other non-Arctic Canadian sites.
