Résultats de la surveillance dans certains estuaires des quatre provinces de l'Atlantique, Monitoring results from select estuaries in the four Atlantic provinces

Keywords: Atlantique, Estuary, Passamaquoddy, Annapolis, Orwell, Estuaire, Atlantic, LaHave, Miramichi, Humber, La Have
Temporal coverage: 2015-06-04/2016-10-21

The purpose of this project was to create an assessment and reporting methodology for estuary health in Atlantic Canada. Project partners were based in the Outer Bay of Fundy, Inner Bay of Fundy, southern shore of Nova Scotia, northwestern Northumberland Strait, eastern Northumberland Strait and western Newfoundland, addressing estuary health in a uniform manner throughout the Atlantic region. 
The water quality data collected in the estuaries included nitrates and chlorophyll a. Sediments were analyzed for contaminants including pesticides; and a series of samples were taken and analyzed for fecal coliform bacteria. Secchi depths were measured at all monitoring sites and a depth profile of dissolved oxygen and salinity was completed each season to establish water quality stratification.
Étude des lacs du delta de Carvel Pitted, Carvel Pitted Delta Lakes Survey

Keywords: survey, enquête, qualité de l'eau, water quality, small lakes, petits lacs
Temporal coverage: 2021-08-11/2022-10-17

In the Carvel Pitted Delta, a post-glacial geological region west of Edmonton, Alberta, there are a large number of lakes that display a high diversity of morphology and water chemistry conditions. Some lakes are used extensively for recreation, others are surrounded by residential developments or agricultural land, while others have very little shoreline development due to being surrounded by large parcels of land. Some lakes have moderate levels of historical monitoring, but many have never been monitored. Beginning in 2019, upon learning about a few lakes with near-oligotrophic conditions, retired aquatic professional Dave Trew enlisted the support of the Alberta Lake Management Society and the University of Alberta to investigate a number of these lakes in the the summers of 2019 and 2020, as well as winter 2020-2021 (much of this data is available in the 'LakeKeepers Water Quality Data,' also available on Datastream). In the summer of 2021, the Mayatan Lake Management Association was enlisted to secure grant support from the Land Stewardship Centre, Stony Plain Fish and Game, and the North Saskatchewan Watershed Alliance to execute a survey of a high number of lakes within the region. 44 lakes were successfully sampled once each, where water chemistry measurements and samples were collected, along with preserved phytoplankton, zooplankton, and benthic invertebrate samples. In 2022, another survey was conducted and included 50 lakes, which were sampled following a slightly enhanced the sampling design. All water chemistry data is available in this dataset. Data analysis and reporting efforts for the survey are ongoing. Further data collection is probable. The primary goal of the project is to develop an updated and improved regional overview of lake water quality to support future land and water management decisions, and encourage location conservation and stewardship activities.

Monitoring locations were selected based on filling spatial gaps in the existing temperature monitoring network, by selecting a range of stream size and temperature classifications using the Nature Conservancy of Canada’s Freshwater Stream Classifications, and in consultation with local community groups.  The data will be useful for thermal modelling, fish habitat assessment, evaluation of diurnal (i.e. daily) fluctuations, comparison to guidelines for aquatic species, and many other anticipated uses.  Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) provided data logger equipment on long-term loan as well as technical advice on proposed monitoring locations, data logger setup, and deployment techniques.  Atlantic Water Network (AWN) provided coordination and advice to community groups on the data uploading procedure for Atlantic DataStream.  Community groups provided staff and volunteers to deploy and maintain the data loggers, to download the data, and to upload the data to Atlantic DataStream.

The Hammond River Watershed has a 73.5 kilometers long main river stem, 125 kilometers of major tributaries and countless kilometers of minor tributaries, encompassing 433 square kilometers of diverse land use and habitat types. The Hammond River is host to one of the last self-sustaining salmon populations in the Bay of Fundy region and salmon conservation underlies much of the HRAA’s work since 1977. The water quality data collected is used to assist in making informed decisions of prioritization of our many riparian restoration projects, ensuring that we are targeting the most stressed locations. With assistance from the Environmental Trust Fund and Wildlife Trust fund, this water monitoring project also aims to build community partnerships, and promote education and stewardship of our beautiful watershed.

Although major efforts have been expended to reduce P losses from landscapes to rivers, the role of dammed reservoirs on riverine P flow remains poorly characterized. In this study, we determined whether Fanshawe Reservoir, on the Thames River, is a net sink or source for P.

Water Rangers through the help of WWF and Loblaw is building water quality testing capacity in 25 data deficient sub-watersheds! We’re equipping communities with inexpensive citizen science testkits, providing online training, and connecting them to a growing network of communities participating in citizen monitoring. This program is a catalyst for further testing in their regions, and our dream is that it will provoke meaningful progress toward protecting freshwater. Using equipment that allow testers to understand basic water health parameters such as temperature, clarity, pH, hardness, alkalinity, dissolved oxygen and conductivity, we’ll help them create baseline data and educate their communities on the value of long-term monitoring, all while giving them tools to manage it long-term.

Polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) are a geographically widespread group of hydrocarbon chemicals, present in the environment as complex mixtures. During the past 25 years, levels of PACs in some northern ecosystems have been increasing, particularly in water, sediments, and lower trophic level organisms. However, relatively little information is publicly available to evaluate PACs in aquatic systems in the Sahtú Settlement Area. To help fill this knowledge gap, this project has two purposes: (i) to evaluate levels, composition, and potential biological impacts of PACs in water bodies in the Northwest Territories and (ii) to help make associated data more accessible to Indigenous communities, as well as to regulators who make decisions about water permits. SPMDs were deployed for approximately a month at a time in waterbodies in the Sahtú Settlement Area.
