Have you heard?
Our annual compendium of planned field research and monitoring in the Northeast Pacific and Arctic oceans, and in the coastal and inland waters of British Columbia and Yukon, is now available!
Fieldnotes is our contribution to continuous improvement, stronger relationships, and to doing better together.
You spoke up, we listened!
As a result of feedback from staff and Indigenous partners, Fieldnotes has evolved from a static PDF to an interactive map-based experience. Users can now:
- Learn about field operations by browsing the map or searching for keywords
- View information in multiple formats, including pop-ups, PDFs, and GIS files
- Overlay reference information such as Indigenous communities, watersheds, and protected areas
Enjoy your Fieldnotes explorations!
