The data used to characterize shipping come from the global cumulative impacts assessment on habitats and available on the [NCEAS online data repository](https://knb.ecoinformatics.org/view/doi:10.5063/F1S180FS).

Two data sources were used to characterize shipping. The first set of data is gathered as part of the World Meteorological Organization Voluntary Observing Ships’ (VOS) scheme. Ships participating in the program gather meteorological data along with observation location as part of an open-ocean climate dataset. The data spans 20 years and annually covers 10-20% of ships worldwide. Data used spanned 2003 to 2011.

The second set of data comes from the Automatic Identification System (AIS), an initiative launched in 2002 that sought to improve marine safety by providing mariners with realtime vessel traffic. Through the International Maritime Organization SOLAS agreement, all vessels of over 300 gross tonnage on international voyages and those carrying passengers are now required to be equipped with AIS transceivers. These transceivers use Global Positioning System technology to locate vessels every 10 minutes. The data used were from November 2010 to December 2011.

Macrocystis kelp canopy productivity data from BC Central Coast, v1.3.0, Données sur la productivité des forets de Macrocystis de la côte centrale de la Colombie-Britannique, v1.3.0

Keywords: biomass, fronds, central-coast-bc, monitoring, subtidal, macrocystis-pyrifera, kelp-forest, oceans, productivity, scuba, algae, giant-kelp, lter, macroalgalcanopycoverandcomposition, composition-et-couverture-de-la-canopee-de-macroalgues, density
Temporal coverage: 2014-05-01/..

The macrocystis canopy productivity dataset is a component of the Hakai Institute Nearshore research and monitoring program. This dataset documents seasonal and annual changes in Macrocystis pyrifera biomass, density, productivity and reproduction on the Central Coast of British Columbia during the primary growing season (April to October). Density and morphometric measurements of kelps in situ were quantified within three to five permanent monitoring sites to determine kelp size structure, growth rates and loss rates throughout the growing season (2014-2018). Additional sites are visited annually (ongoing since 2014) to estimate annual change in biomass at these locations. Outcomes of this research show that biomass and productivity of M. pyrifera varies spatially and temporally. Based on these data we can determine which field parameters best correlate with overall M. pyrifera productivity and biomass, and ultimately, refine metrics for long-term assessments of this canopy kelp status on BC’s coast and find what environment drivers are most important to its density, spread and health. 
This data package is freely available to everyone, following the principles of equitable access and benefit sharing. However, we expect all data users to give attribution to the data providers (read our data license) and the use of these data should happen in the light of fair use, i.e.: 1) respect the data providers, and provide helpful feedback on data quality, and 2) communicate and/or collaborate with the providers if you are considering using this dataset for manuscripts or other forms of reporting.

Slocum gliders are small, free-swimming, unmanned vehicles that use changes in buoyancy to move vertically and horizontally through the water column in a saw-tooth pattern. They are deployed for days to several months and gather detailed information about the physical, chemical and biological processes of the world's oceans. The Slocum glider was designed and built by Teledyne Webb Research Corporation, Falmouth, MA, USA.

The Wave Energy Research Centre (WERC) was established in 2011 by College of the North Atlantic (CNA) to conduct research on the use of ocean wave energy to supply sea water to land based aquaculture.  The site in Lord's Cove, NL is fully instrumented for wave and weather data collection and contains a pilot land -based multi-trophic aquaculture farm. The meteorological station at Lord’s Cove is located at 46°52'43.20"N, 55°40'10.32"W near the public wharf in the town of Lord’s Cove NL Canada. The 10 m tower was erected 2 m from one of our buildings approximately 7 m above sea level and 40 m from the high tide line (Fig. 1). Due to local terrain, it was impossible to find a site with ideal fetch for wind measurements. Although there is excellent fetch for the site in the southern half of the compass (at least 200 m over water), there are nearby (approximately 60 m away) terrain features and structures to the north. For this reason, wind measured from the northern quadrants may be site specific and should be interpreted with caution. The station instrumentation includes an RM Young marine anemometer (model # 05106C-10) mounted at 10 m, a Kipp & Zonen silicon pyranometer (model “SP Lite2”) mounted on a horizontal arm 1 m south from the tower centre at a height of 4 m, a "Hydroclip" RH/T sensor (Model HC2-S3-L)  mounted on the tower  in a 10-plate radiation shield (Campbell Scientific 41003-X)  also at a height of 3 m,  a Texas Electronics TE525M tipping bucket rain and a RM Young 52202-L heated tipping bucket rain gauge, both mounted at 3.5 m on separate supports 3 m southwest of the tower. Data is collected by a Campbell Scientific CR10X logger powered from a solar-charged battery, isolating the system from AC noise. Data is transmitted every 10 minutes to a computer via VHF radio. The data logger is programmed to take measurements every three seconds and analyze these data over 2-minute (for sustained wind), 10-minute and 24–hour (midnight to midnight) periods.  Historical data  Fours datasets are available: 1.	Daily Lord’s Cove Weather Data 2.	Lord’s Cove Weather:  10 Minute Intervals:  Retrieves 10-minute weather data between the dates specified. 3.	Sustained Winds:  Returns sustained (i.e. minimum in 2 minutes) wind speed (Km/hr) every 2 minutes in period.  4.	Quick Wind and Temperature:  this report returns 10-min vector magnitude and air temperatures between the specified dates and produces simple series plots at the end of the report.

Atlas des courants de l'Archipel de Mingan, Mingan Archipelago Atlas of Currents

Keywords: courant marin, Courants de surface, Oceans, decision making, surfaceCurrents, aide à la décision, sea current
Temporal coverage: 2017-01-01/..

The charts in this Atlas show the intensity and direction of the surface currents in the Mingan Archipelago, between Île aux Perroquets and La Grande Pointe, where the tides and the freshwater outflow dominate the circulation of the surface waters.

The Atlas of tidal currents in Mingan Archipelago is a product of the Ocean Science Branch and the Canadian Hydrographic Service, Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Quebec Region. For more information, please see the [data context](https://ogsl.ca/en/navigation/atlasmingan-context).

**Warning**

This Atlas was not designed for navigation purposes. Rather, it is a decision-making tool to predict drift during an oil spill in this sector.

The Atlas does not take into account the influence of local wind blowing over the Mingan Archipelago. These winds can generate surface currents that add to the tidal currents shown in this Atlas. 

In particular, strong winds (more than 20 knots) over the Jacques Cartier Strait can generate surface currents that significantly affect the ones in the Mingan Archipelago. In the event of a Small Craft Warning issued by the Canadian Meteorological Service of Environment Canada, users should refer to the surface current forecast for the Jacques Cartier Strait under the section Ocean Forecasts of the St. Lawrence Global Observatory. The forecasted currents for this area will influence the ones in the Mingan Archipelago.
