Temporal coverage: 2014-07-10/..

This dataset is comprised of Hakai Institute chlorophyll and phaeopigment concentrations collected from 2014 to present at stations within the Calvert Island, Johnstone Strait, and the Quadra Island study regions. Samples for these data were collected in the field using Niskin bottles. Sample water (250 ml) was filtered through: 1) a single glass fiber filter (GF/F, nominal pore size 0.7 um) to comprise a bulk measure of phytoplankton chlorophyll and phaeopigment concentrations and 2) a stack of filters (GF/F, 3 um, and 20 um polycarbonate filters) to estimate chlorophyll and phaeopigment concentrations from pico, nano, and micro-phytoplankton, respectively. Filters were extracted for 24 hours in 10 ml of 90% acetone and analyzed on Turner Designs Trilogy laboratory fluorometers using the acidification module and following the method of Holm Hansen et al. (1965). 

Data have been quality controlled by manual inspection which included a comparison of bulk concentrations against the sum of the size-fractionated filter concentrations. Where available, further comparisons were done with other measures of chlorophyll concentrations including in situ CTD chlorophyll fluorescence and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) data.

Data were collected by the Hakai Institute Oceanography and Nearshore programs.

Temporal coverage: 2014-10-01/2016-05-18

Overview
This chemistry dataset was used to assess patterns in watershed export of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations, DOC flux, and characterization of dissolved organic matter (DOM) for preparation and publication of the manuscript: Oliver et al. 2017, Globally-significant yields of dissolved organic carbon from small watersheds of the Pacific coastal temperate rainforest, doi: 10.5194/bg-2017-5, Biogeosciences. Chemistry and discharge data were collected from the stream outlet stations of the seven focal watersheds at the Hakai watersheds observatory on Calvert and Hecate Islands, British Columbia Central Coast.
Brief summary of methods
For detailed information on sample collection and methods of analysis please refer to Oliver et al. 2017.
Stream water grab samples were collected every 2-3 weeks (or ~monthly in winter) from May 2013 to July 2016 (n= 402) from stream outlets of the seven focal watersheds monitored within the Kwakshua Channel watersheds. Samples were run for analysis of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), iron (Fe), and optical characterization of dissolved organic matter (DOM) using spectrofluorometry. Excitation emission matrices (EEMs) were used in parallel factor modeling (PARAFAC) to deconstruct and identify individual fluorophore components of DOM.  Model output from this PARAFAC analysis can be found online at www.openfluor.org. 
Stream discharge was measured by developing stage discharge rating curves at a fixed hydrometric station in proximity to the outlet. DOC flux was estimated using multiple regression methods in the R package rloadest by combining DOC concentrations with 15-minute continuous stream discharge from each watershed. Loads for October 1, 2015 through April 30, 2016 are presented for each watershed in average kilograms per day. Further details on the development and analysis of stage discharge rating curves and multiple regression models used for estimating DOC flux can be found in Oliver et al. 2017

Drs. Heather Hunt (University of New Brunswick) and Karen Kidd (McMaster University) have been leading a long-term project sampling infaunal invertebrates, sediment contaminants, and sediment characteristics at subtidal sites in Saint John Harbour, NB, Canada. This multi-year project is establishing baseline data that can be used to assess cumulative environmental effects in Saint John Harbour.

Samples were collected yearly (2018-2020) in Fall (October or November) at 6 reference sites (3 in inner harbour and 3 in outer harbour) as well as at 5-7 potential hotspot sites. Samples were collected using a 0.1 m2 Smith McIntyre grab sampler. Infaunal invertebrates were counted from a portion of the grab with a surface area of 321 cm2 and identified to species. Concentrations of contaminants (22 metals and other elements; polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [4 sites in 2018 only]) were measured in surface sediment (upper 5 cm). Percent organic content (loss on ignition (LOI) at 550 and 950oC), total organic carbon (calculated from LOI), percent moisture, and % composition by grain size Wentworth size classes of the sediment were determined. See Van Geest et al. (2015) for detailed field and laboratory methods.

Fisheries and Oceans Canada and the Port of Saint John provided funding to collect this data. This project is part of the Coastal Environmental Baseline Program Initiative under the Oceans Protection Plan of Fisheries and Oceans Canada.

Temporal coverage: None

The mobile invertebrate community associated with three primary habitat types (mussels, barnacle and Fucus distichus) was assessed from 2016-2018 at three coastal sites along the northwest edge of Calvert Island on the central coast of British Columbia. All sites were exposed rocky shorelines with distinct zones of mussels, barnacles, and Fucus distichus algae. We surveyed the abundance and diversity of the mobile invertebrate community within permanent plots in each zone. Counts were performed using the point intercept method with a strung quadrat and size was measured for a subset of species. Plots were also subsampled using smaller unstrung quadrats, within which smaller limpets and littorine snails were counted. The Sites were surveyed on an approximately monthly basis from May-September, and two winter surveys in November and February. We conducted 6 surveys in 2018, 5 in 2017, and 3 in 2016.
