Library of climate resources

This is a collection of links to climate datasets, tools, guidance and related resources. The sources include the federal government, provincial and territorial governments, national professional organizations, climate consortia and established international organizations. It can be useful for impact, vulnerability and risk assessments, and for adaptation planning.

NeraCoos Data (Opens in a new Window)
NeraCoos Data contains data products and tools summarizing eastern buoy, station, and forecasts data. Historical and future data are available as point data. Climate variables include wind speed, wind gust, air temperature, water temperature at varying depths, and air temperature; they are updated from each station and users can compare stations. Forecasts of coastal flooding and erosion, and 48-hour wave and wind are also available.

NS Climate Change Data (Opens in a new Window)
NS Climate Change Data provides climate data for various regions in Nova Scotia. Each region has historical data for a 30 year baseline period (1961 – 90) and for future projections: 2020s, 2050s, and 2080s. Climate variables include cold days, cooling degree days, temperatures. Climate Change Data can be appended for download into multiple CSV formats.

Regional, national and international climate modeling (Opens in a new Window)
Regional, national and international climate modeling contains a database of numerous climate variables for Canada and the USA. Historical and future periods are available as modelled point and gridded data. Data are available as 30-year averages (e.g. 1961/90; 1971/2000, etc.), historical month-by-month (from the late 1800s), and daily values (from the 1950s) all for a number of variables, Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) climate change scenarios, and climate models. Future time periods include all years to 2100 and 30-year means for 2011-2040, 2041-2070, and 2071-2100.

Scenarios Network for Alaska and Arctic Planning (Opens in a new Window)
Scenarios Network for Arctic Planning (SNAP) produces downscaled, historical and projected climate data for sub-Arctic and Arctic regions of Alaska and Canada. Other project-specific data covers much larger regions. Users can search for datasets of interest using keywords and filter datasets based on relevance, name, and date last modified. Analysis tools are also available for Alaska wildfire, climate projections, climate histories, daily precipitation, extreme weather, historical sea ice, modelled sea ice coverage, and sea ice and wind interactions.

The use of the Land Suitability Rating System to Assess Climate Change Impacts on Corn Production in the Lower Fraser Valley of British Columbia (Opens in a new Window)
The Land Suitability Rating System (LSRS) is a spatial modeling tool that generates a class rating for individual parcels of land for specific agricultural field crops based on a soil-climate-landscape potential. Alongside the Tool are accompanying climatic temperate index maps and climate moisture maps.

Tundra Nunavik project (Opens in a new Window)
While most ecological studies focus on the impact of climate change on some populations or species, ecosystem-based information is needed to better predict the future state of the Arctic. The Tundra Nunavik project is a large-scale study aimed at characterizing the vulnerability of tundra terrestrial ecosystems to climate change through modelling approach. The approach combined climate modeling, climate niche modeling, and ecosystem modeling, to assess potential changes in terrestrial ecosystems of tundra of Nunavik during the 21st century

Water Information and Flood Conditions (Opens in a new Window)
Manitoba Flood Forecasting presents Flood Forecasts and Reports, River Levels/Flow Plots, Forecast Information Maps, Lakes Information, and maps. Forecast Information is available in an interactive map that displays flood forecasts at various stations across Manitoba. Flood sheets, which are issued during the spring runoff period or summer rain period, are updated daily and show the flow at a particular station, and its deviations from the forecasted peak. Data are available in mapped, tabular, and various other formats.
