正文(英文) | July 7, 2020 Ottawa, Ontario - Canada’s marine ecosystems are vital to the livelihoods, well‑being and culture of countless Indigenous and coastal communities. Scientific research and data is critical to conserving and protecting these ecosystems. The Government of Canada is proud to work together with non-government organizations and communities to collect the crucial data that informs how we manage and protect these ecosystems. Today, the Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard, the Honourable Bernadette Jordan, announced that the Government of Canada is investing $1.2 million to support the development of a web-based scientific data management system for integrating and sharing ocean science data. The project, led by the St. Lawrence Global Observatory, will organize, standardize, manage, and disseminate data from coastal environmental baseline projects conducted by Canadian organizations. The Observatory will work closely with 39 partners from British Columbia, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nunavut and Newfoundland and Labrador. The data to be collected from all three coasts will come from projects in six environments that are likely to be affected by increasing vessel traffic. This initiative will establish data management standards that will be useful to Canada’s marine science community. This project is part of the $50.8 million Coastal Environmental Baseline Program established under the Oceans Protection Plan. The Program supports advancing coastal data collection initiatives and relies on collaboration between Fisheries and Oceans Canada scientists, Indigenous and coastal communities, non-governmental organizations, academia and other local partners. Participating groups are gathering wide-ranging scientific data that will help characterize Canada’s coastal environment. Collecting baseline data is crucial to our understanding of marine ecosystems and our capacity to protect species and their marine habitats for future generations. The data may also be used to inform decisions that impact sensitive marine environments. -30- Quotes
