This table provides the current expenditure forecast for each statutory authority within a department or agency, for which a financial requirement has been identified.

Population trend estimates based on data collected through the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS), for approximately 300 Canadian bird species. The trend results are Canadian trends and thus use data from Canadian BBS routes only. Results are updated annually; these estimates use BBS data from 1970 through 2009. Trends are presented for species, provinces, territories, and Bird Conservation Regions (BCR) for which there are sufficient BBS data for statistical analysis.The estimates were generated using a maximum likelihood, annual index analysis, which differs from the analysis currently used to generate trend and annual index estimates.

The Nitrogen Scoping Study consisted of 14 different field campaigns, each of 3-7 weeks duration undertaken between November 2001 and March 2005 at 8 sites of the Canadian Air and Precipitation Monitoring Network (CAPMoN). The objectives of the study were: (1) to characterize the ambient concentrations of oxidized and reduced nitrogen species at CAPMoN sites, (2) to estimate the contribution of the different nitrogen species to nitrogen wet, dry and wet+dry deposition at CAPMoN sites (with a view to understanding which nitrogen species should be added to the CAPMoN suite of measurements) and (3) to measure the size distribution of various inorganic ions in particulate matter at CAPMoN sites. The resultant data sets provide short-term characterizations of air quality at the 8 rural/remote locations in Canada and are provided in collaboration with the National Atmospheric Chemistry (NAtChem) Database and Analysis Facility of Environment and Climate Change Canada.

The Geological Atlas of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin was designed primarily as a reference volume documenting the subsurface geology of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin. This GIS dataset is one of a collection of shapefiles representing part of Chapter 24 of the Atlas, Uppermost Cretaceous and Tertiary Strata of the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, Figure 4a, Schematic Lea Park/Pakowki Paleogeography. Shapefiles were produced from archived digital files created by the Alberta Geological Survey in the mid-1990s, and edited in 2005-06 to correct, attribute and consolidate the data into single files by feature type and by figure.

The Blended Index (BI) is a model which employs multiple potential indicators of drought and excess moisture, such as the Palmer drought index, rolling precipitation amounts and soil moisture, and combines them into a weighted, normalized value between 0 and 100. The inputs and weights used in this model are subject to change periodically as it is optimized to best represent extent, duration and severity of impactful weather conditions. The blended index is deployed as two variations; short term (st) focusing on 1 to 3 months, and long term (lt) focusing on 6 months to 5 years.

This GIS dataset depicts the surficial geology of the Slims Creek area (NTS 84F/SW) (GIS data, polygon features). The data were created in geodatabase format and output for public distribution in shapefile format. These data comprise the polygon features of Alberta Geological Survey Map 581, Surficial Geology of the Slims Creek Area (NTS 84F/SW).

This table is part of a series of tables that present a portrait of Canada based on the various census topics. The tables range in complexity and levels of geography. Content varies from a simple overview of the country to complex cross-tabulations; the tables may also cover several censuses.

The spatial representation for a Natural Resource (NR) District, that is an administrative area established by the Ministry, within NR Regions. This dataset supersedes WHSEADMINBOUNDARIES.FADM_DISTRICT which were known as Forest District boundaries.

This table contains data for years 2000 - 2011, and is no longer being released. This table contains data described by the following dimensions: Geography; Migration movement; Migration type; Sex.
