加拿大投资世界一流的海洋监测系统,为子孙后 代加强海洋保护 The Government of Canada invests in world-class ocean monitoring system to enhance Canada’s ocean protection for the next generation


安大略渥太华–海洋观测科学可以帮助拯救生命,保护我们的水域和生态体系,并增长我 们的经济。加拿大政府正在与海洋科学界合作,收集和分享所需的海洋信息和数据,以保 持我们的海洋和沿海地区的清洁和安全,造福子孙后代。

2 月 6 日,渔业、海洋和负责加拿大海岸警卫队事务部长梅丽乔(Joyce Murray)阁下宣 布:在五年内向维多利亚大学发起的“加拿大海洋网络” (Ocean Networks Canada) 提 供 4650 万加元的资金,以加强其世界级的海洋监测系统。这项研究由加拿大海洋保护计 划资助,有助于提供实时、开放的数据,以更好地了解我们不断变化的海洋。

“加拿大海洋网络”支持深海和沿海海洋观测站网络,收集数据以监测海洋变化,包括所 有三个海岸的气候影响和水下噪音。它还支持海洋雷达和海洋浮标监测工作,提供有关海 浪和海面水流的实时信息,帮助监测海洋状况并为极端事件做好准备。今天宣布的投资有 助于加拿大继续收集必要的数据,以保护我们的生态体系,支持航行安全,并为应急响应 规划提供信息。

The Government of Canada invests in worldclass ocean monitoring system to enhance Canada’s ocean protection for the next generation

From: Fisheries and Oceans Canada

Ottawa, Ontario – Ocean observation science can help save lives, protect our waters and ecosystems, and grow our economy. The Government of Canada is working with the ocean science community to collect and share ocean information and data needed to keep our marine and coastal areas clean and safe for generations.

Today, the Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard, the Honourable Joyce Murray, announced $46.5 million in funding over five years to Ocean Networks Canada, an initiative of the University of Victoria, to enhance their world-class ocean monitoring system. Funded through Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan, this research helps to provide real-time, open data to better understand our changing oceans.

Ocean Networks Canada supports a network of deep sea and coastal ocean observatories that collect data to monitor ocean changes, including climate impacts and underwater noise on all three coasts. It also supports oceanographic radar and ocean buoy monitoring efforts that provide real-time information on wave, and surface currents that help monitor ocean conditions and prepare for extreme events. Today’s investment helps Canada continue to collect the data needed to protect our ecosystems, support safe navigation, and inform emergency response planning.

This project embodies the spirit of Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan. It brings together the best scientific advice, knowledge and tools to protect our oceans and the ecosystems and communities that depend on them. Together, we are working to help keep our oceans and coasts healthy to build a clean future for our children and grandchildren.

Quotes

“Ocean science is essential to the protection and the sustainable use of oceans and waterways. Today’s funding will support data collection needed to safeguard our waters, and the abundance and diversity of the ecosystems and marine life within them. Canada continues to be an ocean science leader for our aquatic environment and blue economy. Ocean science and monitoring is a smart investment when it comes to ocean protection.”

The Honourable Joyce Murray, Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard “Through the Oceans Protection Plan, our Government continues to invest in scientific research and technology, and collaborates with and supports organizations such as Ocean Networks Canada, and Indigenous and coastal communities, to increase our understanding of how to protect coastal ecosystems. Under the Oceans Protection Plan, we are expanding measures to protect and restore vulnerable ecosystems across the country “

The Honourable Omar Alghabra, Minister of Transport “Ocean Networks Canada is committed to supporting Canada’s Oceans Protection Plan through our world-leading innovation in ocean observing technology, open data, and data products. Our culture of innovation and partnership brings together scientific research and Indigenous knowledge to advance the goals of the Plan and deliver the tools needed to tackle the biggest challenge today in the ocean and on the planet— climate change.”

Kate Moran, President and CEO, University of Victoria’s Ocean Networks Canada “At UVic, we strive to support and empower people to exist more sustainably and improve the well-being of communities and our planet. Ocean Networks Canada is a key catalyst in this work by helping society understand the interconnectivity of life, the oceans and planet. Together, as we advance local and global issues of climate action and sustainability, the rights of Indigenous Peoples, social justice and equity, and health and wellness, we’re collaborating toward healthier and more resilient futures that uphold the well-being of our region and of all life on our planet.”

Kevin Hall, President and Vice-Chancellor, University of Victoria
