Distribution of unspecified pelagic bird species habitat in coastal British Columbia showing relative abundance (RA) by season and overall relative importance (RI). RI is based on project region and not on the province as a whole. British Columbia has been collecting coastal resource data in a systematic and synoptic manner since 1979. Resource information is collected using peer-reviewed provincial Resource Information Standards Committee which include standards for data management and analysis.
This is a provincial coverage of stream macro-reaches. A macro-reach is a homogeneous stream segment delineated through interpretation of reach attributes from the 1:50,000 National Topographic Series (NTS) of mapsheets. Reach attributes include gradient (as derived from contour interpolation), channel pattern, size of stream, order of stream, major falls, position of the stream in the landscape, and inferred bank materials. These macro-reaches are geo-referenced to the stream centreline network of the BC Watershed Atlas 50K. Each stream is subdivided into one or more macro-reaches that run in a continuous sequence from a stream's mouth to its headwaters. This theme has been used to quantify some aspects of hydrology...
Wildlife radio-telemetry may be defined as the transmission of information from a transmitter on a free-ranging wild animal to a receiver. Wildlife-related telemetry is also known as radio tagging, radio-tracking or simply ?tagging? or ?tracking?. Advances in the field of wildlife telemetry have made it possible to acquire detailed data on many aspects of wildlife biology, including habitat use, home range size, mortality and survivorship, and migration timing and routes.Since many wildlife species are secretive and difficult to observe, radiotelemetry has provided a valuable tool to learn more about their respective life histories
Distribution of dabbling duck species habitat in coastal British Columbia showing relative abundance (RA) by season and overall relative importance (RI). RI is based on project region and not on the province as a whole. British Columbia has been collecting coastal resource data in a systematic and synoptic manner since 1979.

Provides a suitable label point for Biogeoclimatic layers in iMap and MapView. Intended as a cartographic layer for iMap and MapView. NOT FOR ANALYTICAL PURPOSES.
The British Columbia Marine Conservation Analysis (BCMCA) is a collaborative project assembling and analyzing spatial information about Canada's Pacific Ocean. The overall goal of the BCMCA is to identify marine areas of high conservation value and marine areas important to human use. Results of the project are intended to inform and help advance marine planning initiatives in BC by providing collaborative, peer-reviewed scientific analyses based on the best ecological and socio-economic spatial data at scales relevant to a BC coast-wide analysis.

Twenty-five British Columbia Ferry Services Inc. (BC Ferries) routes, as well as twenty-one routes serviced by other ferry operators.
The Pink Shrimp catch and effort grid dataset has been assembled directly from the Shellfish Data Units harvest log database located at the Pacific Biological Station (PBS). The dataset has been modified to meet the sensitive nature of the data as per the Access to Information Act20(1)(b,c); which specifies that Fisheries and Oceans Canada will not disclose to a third party confidential information that may prejudice the competitive position of the fisher, in which fishing location has been identified as one of the entities to be protected. There was a 10km x 10km grid used in the desensitization process. As well information was limited to total Effort (kilometre) and total Catch (lbs). The dataset is comprised...
These data were digitized from the Pacific Pilotage Regulations dated February 26, 2011 and show areas within the Canadian Pacific EEZ where ships transiting to and from Canadian ports are required to carry a certified pilot. Data extend inland to cover all relevant inlets and have not been clipped to a particular coastline.
ClimateWNA: A program to generate high-resolution climate data for climate change studies and applications in western North America Overview ClimateWNA extracts and downscales PRISM (Daly et al. 2002) monthly data (2.5 x 2.5 arcmin) for the reference period (1961-1990), and calculates seasonal and annual climate variables for specific locations based on latitude, longitude and elevation (optional) for western North America, shown in the map on the right. This program also downscales and integrates historical (1901-2011) (Mitchell and Jones 2005 for 1901-2009) and future climate data (2020s, 2050s and 2080s) generated by various global circulation models. The output includes both directly calculated and derived...
The Sea Surface Temperature (SST) data of the nearshore region of the North Pacific show temperature ranges in degrees C using points whose locations correspond to the centroids of AVHRR Pathfinder version 5 monthly, global, 4 km data set (PFSST V50). The pathfinder rasters are available from the Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC), hosted by NASA JPL. The data points in this dataset lie within a 20 km buffer from the GSHHS (Global Self-consistent, Hierarchical, High-resolution Shoreline) coastline. The GSHHS vector data are available from the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC). Furthermore, each point in the SST dataset is categorized by the ecoregion in which it is located. This...
The first of six strategies in Canada’s Policy for the Conservation of Wild Pacific Salmon concerns the identification of units of diversity (called Conservation Units) and determining their conservation status. The primary purpose of this document is to describe the method that was developed to identify the Conservation Units for the five species of Pacific salmon in British Columbia. The description of units in most of the Yukon and Northwest Territories will proceed using this method once the ecotypology of those areas is completed.The approach of Waples et al. (2005, Journal of Fish Biology, volume 59, pages 1-41) was modified to characterize diversity in Pacific salmon along three major axes: ecology, life...
Amalgamations of Wildlife Management Units which share similar ecological characteristics and hunter harvest patterns, and thus provide a suitable geographical framework for implementing population management strategies

A polygon coverage showing the location of coalfields with coalbed methane (cbm) potential in BC By accessing this dataset you agree to the Province's license available for review at: http://pub.data.gov.bc.ca/license/OGL-vbc1.0.pdf The Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources maintains a library of over 861 Coal Assessment Reports submitted by exploration companies and dating from 1900. Reports off-confidential are available for viewing on the Web or for purchase on CD-ROM. Some exploration data from the reports, such as trench, borehole and bulk sample information, have been summarized into a set to digital tables called COALFILE. This map features Coal Geology layers, data tables from COALFILE and links...
