The Itcha Ilgachuz Caribou Habitat Area (IICHA) and associated quadrants were developed as a part of the 2002 Northern Caribou Strategy, with revisions in 2011. The boundary is based on caribou telemetry to 2011, and is used to form the outer boundary of the quadrants that are used to help determine the rate of cut within WHA 5-086.

Landscape Units (Subdivisions) were developed as a part of the 2002 Northern Caribou Strategy and are used for landscape level planning within Wildlife Habitat Area 5-086.

Predicted silt percentage (%) at a defined depth range (0–5 cm, 5–15 cm, 15–30 cm, 30–60 cm, 60–100 cm).

From August 5th to September 3rd, 2012, Fisheries and Oceans Canada conducted a baseline survey of marine fishes and their habitats on the Canadian Beaufort Shelf and slope. Sampling was conducted from the F/V Frosti at 28 stations along four transects. Standardized sampling was conducted at pre-determined depth stations (20-40, 75, 200, 350, 500, 750, and 1000 m) using a variety of sampling equipment including benthic fishing trawls, plankton nets, sediment cores, and CTD and water sample profiles. A specialized CTD probe (UCTD) was deployed at an additional 30 locations while the ship was underway. Presented here is the information on the sampling locations, and the sampling gear deployed at each station.

This downloadable data product includes the federal boundary files from the most recent census year. The official boundaries are updated every 5 years with the census and should be considered the most recent official boundaries. Layers in each geodatabase include Economic Regions, Census Divisions, Census Subdivisions, Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations, Census Tracts, and Dissemination Areas. The current boundaries are from the 2021 Census of population. For intercensal boundaries, please see the intercensus boundary record. This information is adapted from Statistics Canada, Boundary files in their respective years. This does not constitute an endorsement by Statistics Canada of this product.

Predicted Soil organic carbon (%) at a defined depth range (0–5 cm, 5–15 cm, 15–30 cm, 30–60 cm, 60–100 cm).

Climatological monthly-mean temperature and salinity data were computed for each of the 27 Line P stations (https://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/science/data-donnees/line-p/index-eng.html). For any particular station, data were accepted as belonging to that station if the location was within 10 km of the intended station (or 24km at Ocean Station Papa, P26). Data were binned by month/year over all available data for each station up to and including 2012. Hence the time interval that the mean state was computed from starts between 1956 and 1960 and ends at the end of 2012. Standard deviations were computed for each month independently and at each 5-m depth bin and were estimated as the variability between different years for the month in question.

Predicted clay percentage (%) at a defined depth range (0–5 cm, 5–15 cm, 15–30 cm, 30–60 cm, 60–100 cm).

Predicted bulk density (g/cm3) at defined depth ranges (0–5 cm, 5–15 cm, 15–30 cm, 30–60 cm, 60–100 cm). The mass of dry soil per unit bulk volume.

Predicted soil pH in CaCl2 at a defined depth range (0–5 cm, 5–15 cm, 15–30 cm, 30–60 cm, 60–100 cm). The degree of acidity or alkalinity of a soil expressed in terms of the pH scale.
