Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Agreement:

Development of Machine Learning-Based Techniques for Monitoring and Analyzing the Effects of Natural and Manmade Stressors on Canada’s Blue Carbon Ecosystem using a Secure Underwater Communication Suite

Agreement Number:

1009014

Duration: from Oct 18, 2023 to Aug 31, 2026
Description:

The proposed Project intends to create machine learning methods and a secure underwater communication suite to track and comprehend the impacts of environmental stresses on Canada's blue carbon ecosystems. In particular, the Project aims to detect patterns and trends in stressor effects on these ecosystems and the dependent aquatic species by analyzing data from numerous sensor nodes. Data availability and integrity will be guaranteed through the creation of a secure underwater sensor suite, and the security threats present within the sensor network will be quantified by vulnerability assessment. The Project is expected to provide a thorough machine learning-based ecosystem monitoring system, a better understanding of the impacts of stressors, a real-time monitoring software system, a secure underwater sensor suite, and information on vulnerability exploitation. In general, the goal of the Project is to support efficient ecosystem management and the preservation of blue carbon ecosystems.
