    Canadian Coastal Climate Risk Information System (Opens in a new Window)

    National Research Council Canada. The web application hosts numerical simulations of storm surges and waves in British Columbia coastal waters under historical and future climate (RCP8.5) scenarios. The project is the first of its kind to utilize unstructured, computational models to simulate storm surges and waves for the entire western Canada coastal region, while maintaining the high spatial resolution in coastal sub-basins needed to capture local dynamic responses

    Cartographie des zones de contraintes relatives à l'érosion côtière et aux mouvements de terrain (in French only) (Opens in a new Window)

    This map locates the parts of the territory where coastal erosion standards, prescribed by the Quebec government, must be applied. Coastal erosion constraint zones include protection strips where various interventions must be regulated. These zones are intended to be integrated into the RCM's land use and development plan for land use planning and control, in accordance with the requirements of the Act respecting land use planning and development (A-19.1, section 5).
