This polygon layer reflects short-range (up to 84 hours) accumulated precipitation forecasts from the Regional Deterministic Prediction System (RDPS), a high-resolution (~10 km) weather model developed by Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC). It supports flood forecasting, hydrological modeling, and operational planning by providing refined, near-real-time precipitation guidance for Canada and surrounding areas.Short-Range Forecasts: RDPS runs multiple times per day, offering precipitation outlooks for days 0–3.5 with updates every six hours. High Resolution: At ~10 km, RDPS captures critical mesoscale phenomena like localized downpours, lake-effect snow, and terrain-driven precipitation. Hydrological Utility: Especially valuable for sub-basin-level flood risk assessment and water resource management in near-term scenarios. Technical Basis: The RDPS is a limited-area configuration of the GEM model, using initial/boundary conditions from ECCC’s Global Deterministic Prediction System (GDPS).

A Conservation Unit (CU) is a group of wild Pacific salmon sufficiently isolated from other groups that, if extirpated, is very unlikely to recolonize naturally within an acceptable timeframe, such as a human lifetime or a specified number of salmon generations.Holtby and Ciruna (2007) provided a framework for aggregating the five species of salmon (genus Oncorhynchus) found on Canada’s Pacific coast into species-specific CUs based on three primary characteristics: ecotypology, life history and genetics. The first stage in the description of the Conservation Units is based solely on ecology. The ecotypologies used in this framework include a combined characterization of both freshwater and near-shore marine environments, and is termed “joint adaptive zone”. The second stage of the description involves the use of life history, molecular genetics, and further ecological characterizations to group and partition the first stage units into the final Conservation Units. The result is CUs that are described through the joint application of all three axes. It is important to note that CUs are distinct from other aggregates of Pacific salmon, such as designatable units (DUs) under the Species at Risk Act or management units (MUs).CU Counting Sites:Salmon spawner enumeration data in the Pacific Region is stored and managed in the New Salmon Escapement Database (NuSEDS). The term “escapement” is used to refer to the group of mature salmon that have ‘escaped’ from various sources of exploitation, and returned to freshwater to spawn and reproduce. This data is assigned to a “Counting Site”, which may be a complete watercourse with a marine terminus, a tributary to a larger watercourse, or a defined reach within a watercourse that may or may not encompass the entire population but represents an index of the abundance of that population. CU Status:CUs form the basic unit for assessment under Canada’s Policy for the Conservation of Wild Salmon Policy (WSP) (DFO 2005). The biological status of a CU is evaluated using a number of metrics (Holt et al. 2009; Holt 2009), which indicate a WSP status zone: Red (poor status), Amber (marginal status), or Green (healthy status). A final step then incorporates all metric and status-related information into a final integrated status for each CU, along with expert commentary to support the final status determination (e.g., DFO 2012; DFO 2016). This information is used as inputs to fisheries management processes to help prioritize assessment activities and management actions.Note: CU boundaries were reviewed in 2020-2021 and have been updated from the BC Freshwater Atlas 1:50,000 scale to the BC Freshwater Atlas 1:20,000 scale. The CU boundaries were last updated in March 2023. Please be aware that CUs may be reviewed and are subject to change without notice.Please refer to Conservation Unit Review Requests-Form and Summary for a list of CU review requests that are ongoing or have been finalized.

A shapefile of freshwater water bodies hat have been sampled as part of the Nova Scotia Lake Survey. The Nova Scotia Lake Survey program is a partnership initiative between Nova Scotia Environment (NSE) and Nova Scotia Fisheries and Aquaculture (NSDFA) to inventory lakes throughout the province determining baseline water quality, in support of both sport fisheries and water resource management areas. The following weblink connects to a Nova Scotia Environment web map that includes the locations of the monitored lakes within the province and an alternative method for downloading the same lake chemistry dataset: http://nse.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=7ded7a30bef44f848e8a4fc8672c89bd

Data on physical conditions in Ontario’s lakes and streams: * For lakes this includes measurements such as temperature, dissolved oxygen levels and water transparency, ice dates, as well as sampling location details. * For streams this includes measurements such as stream flow discharge from monitoring stations in south-central Ontario. Meteorological conditions for climate stations close to monitored lakes in south-central Ontario, includes measurements such as air temperature, humidity, precipitation and wind speed. This data set includes information on sampling locations and physical conditions in lakes and streams across Ontario, as well as meteorological and lake ice-cover conditions from monitoring stations in south-central Ontario. Data were collected since 1976, as part of routine monitoring of water quality of inland waters and for scientific and research purposes. Keywords: water quality, meteorology, hydrology, wind, dissolved oxygen, environmental monitoring
