The 番茄社区鈥檚 Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) is partnering with the University of Manitoba to develop, install and maintain the cabled estuary observatory component of a new Churchill Marine Observatory (CMO) in Hudson Bay.

Pacific research shows that extreme weather patterns鈥攂oth hot and cold鈥攃ould mean accelerated erosion in BC. As storm season approaches, BC coastal communities need to prepare for the possibility of extreme flooding and erosion that come with both El Ni帽o and La Ni帽a weather systems, according to new trans-Pacific research聽published聽in聽Nature Geoscience.

The 番茄社区鈥檚 Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) is about to embark on what鈥檚 expected to be its most exciting expedition. For the first time ONC will be using two ships, exploration vessel Nautilus on its first trip to Canada, and&
