Riding Mountain National Park: Total GHG Emissions of Forested Ecosystems

“Riding Mountain National Park - Total GHG Emissions” datasets consist of estimates of GHG emissions (carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O)) in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e) from forested ecosystems in Riding Mountain National Park from 1990 to 2020 (tonnes carbon dioxide equivalent per hectare).  
  
  Total GHG emissions for 31 national parks were estimated using the Generic Carbon Budget Model (GCBM), a spatially explicit carbon budget model developed by Canadian Forest Service which uses forest inventory, disturbance, and mean annual temperature data along with yield data to estimate growth and merchantable volume for dominant tree species. Species- and Ecozone-specific equations are then used to convert merchantable volume to aboveground and belowground biomass carbon. The GCBM simulates carbon dynamics to produce spatially explicit estimations of carbon stocks and fluxes. The model simulates and tracks carbon stocks, transfers between Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)-defined pools, and other metrics including net ecosystem production, net biome production, and emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) in annual time steps. The stocks and fluxes are also tracked by disturbance event (e.g., forest fires).  
  
  Total GHG emissions include those from natural processes like respiration and decomposition and those due to natural and anthropogenic disturbances, including wildfires, prescribed burns, and insect outbreaks. These were calculated as the sum of CO2, CH4, and N2O emission estimates in tonnes carbon (tonnes C) generated by the GCBM. Emissions estimates were then converted to carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e) using the 100-year Global Warming Potential (IPCC Fourth Assessment Report) factors for CH4 (25) and N2O (298).

Pukaskwa National Park: Total Ecosystem Forest Carbon Density

“Pukaskwa National Park - Total Ecosystem Forest Carbon Density” is the annual carbon density (tonnes carbon per hectare) within Pukaskwa’s forested ecosystems over a 31-year period from 1990 to 2020. Total Ecosystem Forest Carbon Density includes aboveground and belowground biomass, soil carbon, and dead organic matter.   
  
  Total Ecosystem Forest Carbon Density was estimated for 31 national parks using the Generic Carbon Budget Model (GCBM), a spatially explicit carbon budget model developed by Canadian Forest Service which uses forest inventory, disturbance, and mean annual temperature data along with yield data to estimate growth and merchantable volume for dominant tree species. Species- and Ecozone-specific equations are then used to convert merchantable volume to aboveground and belowground biomass carbon. Ecozones were classified according to Canada Ecological Land Classification Level 1. The GCBM simulates carbon dynamics to produce spatially explicit estimations of carbon stocks and fluxes. The model simulates and tracks carbon stocks, transfers between Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change-defined pools, and other metrics including net ecosystem production, net biome production, and emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) in annual time steps.

2021 Census - Boundary files

The 2021 Census Boundary Files depict the boundaries of all standard geographic areas established for the purpose of disseminating census data.   
  
  They contain information such as unique identifier (UID), name and type where applicable, as well as land area and province or territory unique identifier (PRUID). Each boundary file can be linked to all higher level geographic areas using its DGUID and the new 2021 Dissemination Geographies Relationship File.  
  
  They are available for download or viewing in two types: cartographic and digital. Both cartographic and digital boundary files are portrayed in Lambert conformal conic projection (North American Datum of 1983 [NAD83]).  
  
  The purpose of the 2021 Census Boundary Files is to provide a framework for mapping and spatial analysis, and to support Geographic Information System (GIS) applications used for land use and demographic studies, or social, economic and market research. Geographic unique identifiers permit linkage of statistical data to geographic areas depicted in the boundary files. Boundary files can also be used to create new geographic areas by combining standard geographic areas.  
  
  The boundary files are positionally consistent with the 2021 Road Network File, which provides additional reference for geographic context for mapping applications.  
  
  Each 2021 Census Boundary File contains the UID, DGUID, name and type where applicable, and land area of the geographic level the file represents. It also contains the PRUID. A 2021 Census Boundary File is available for each of the following geographic areas:

Overview of Cumulative Effects Research at Natural Resources Canada 2018-2023

To support the implementation of the Impact Assessment Act, Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) received funding over  five years (2018-23) for cumulative effects research to be conducted by three of NRCan’s science sectors – the Canada Centre for Mapping and Earth Observation  within the Strategic Policy and Innovation Sector, the Canadian Forest Service, and the Geological Survey of Canada  within the Lands and Minerals Sector – to conduct key earth observation, forest, and geoscience research. The overarching goal of this research is to inform regional assessment and related impact assessment processes, with a central focus on making the science and knowledge generated open and accessible to the public via the  Open Science and Data Platform . Projects from all three sectors generated authoritative data on the status and trends of ecosystem parameters, as well as provided unique science and technical analysis, synthesis and advice on topics related to the cumulative effects of natural resource development. This Story Map synthesizes the cumulative effects science generated over the past five years. Through the Story Map platform, we hope to illustrate the national scale of this research program and the diversity of locations in Canada within which research has been conducted.
