Au cours de chaque étude, des données sont collectées sur l'identification des espèces, le nombre d'individus présents, le comportement général tel que le repos, l'alimentation ou le vol, les perturbations, et la position générale des oiseaux par rapport au rivage, classés comme côtiers, côtiers ou hauturiers. Les conditions environnementales propres au site sont également enregistrées, notamment les variables météorologiques telles que les précipitations, le vent et la couverture nuageuse, ainsi que l'état et le mouvement des marées, l'état de la mer, la visibilité, l'éblouissement et l'activité humaine sur les sites.\n\nCes relevés font partie du Programme sur les données environnementales côtières de référence dans le cadre du Plan de protection des océans, géré par Pêches et Océans Canada.

2024, point count waterbird surveys are being conducted at 14 sites across The Port of Sydney Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada. This effort will continue through 2026. These surveys take place seasonally, focusing on select times in the fall, spring, summer, and winter. During each survey, data is collected on species identification, the number of individuals present, general behaviour such as resting, feeding, or flying, disturbances, and the birds&#39; general location relative to the shore, categorized as inshore, nearshore, or offshore. Site-specific environmental conditions are also recorded, including weather variables like precipitation, wind, and cloud cover, as well as tidal state and movement, sea state, visibility, glare, and human activity at the sites.\n\nThese surveys are part of the Coastal Environmental Baseline Program under the Oceans Protection Plan, managed by Fisheries and Oceans Canada. With increased ship traffic and oil facilities, particularly in areas like Halifax Harbour and the Port of Sydney, waterbirds face significant risks, particularly from oil spills. The Migratory Birds Regulations prohibit harm to migratory birds in Canada, yet the threats from coastal industrial activity persist. This project aims to better understand where waterbirds are and when they are present in these harbours, helping improve protection measures during environmental incidents such as oil spills.\n\nThe Port of Halifax bird survey dataset related to this project is also available for consultation:\n\n- [Port of Halifax Cape Breton, Water Bird Surveys](https://catalogue.ogsl.ca/en/dataset/ca-cioos_952f8200-0051-4af7-86f2-35e7345fb9f7)</gco:CharacterString>\n        <lan:PT_FreeText>\n          <lan:textGroup>\n            <lan:LocalisedCharacterString locale=\"#fr\">Du printemps 2024 à l&#39;hiver 2026, des relevés ponctuels d&#39;oiseaux d&#39;eau sont réalisés sur 14 sites du port de Sydney au Cap-Breton, en Nouvelle-Écosse, au Canada. Ces enquêtes ont lieu de façon saisonnière et se concentrent sur certaines périodes de l&#39;automne, du printemps, de l&#39;été et de l&#39;hiver. Au cours de chaque étude, des données sont collectées sur l&#39;identification des espèces, le nombre d&#39;individus présents, le comportement général tel que le repos, l&#39;alimentation ou le vol, les perturbations, et la position générale des oiseaux par rapport au rivage, classés comme côtiers, côtiers ou hauturiers. Les conditions environnementales propres au site sont également enregistrées, notamment les variables météorologiques telles que les précipitations, le vent et la couverture nuageuse, ainsi que l&#39;état et le mouvement des marées, l&#39;état de la mer, la visibilité, l&#39;éblouissement et l&#39;activité humaine sur les sites.\n\nCes relevés font partie du Programme sur les données environnementales côtières de référence dans le cadre du Plan de protection des océans, géré par Pêches et Océans Canada. En raison de l&#39;augmentation du trafic maritime et des installations pétrolières, en particulier dans des zones comme le port de Halifax et le port de Sydney, les oiseaux d&#39;eau sont confrontés à des risques importants, notamment en cas de déversement d&#39;hydrocarbures. Le Règlement sur les oiseaux migrateurs interdit de nuire aux oiseaux migrateurs au Canada, mais les menaces liées à l&#39;activité industrielle côtière persistent. Ce projet vise à mieux comprendre où se trouvent les oiseaux d&#39;eau et à quel moment ils sont présents dans ces ports, afin d&#39;améliorer les mesures de protection lors d&#39;incidents environnementaux tels que les déversements d&#39;hydrocarbures.\n\nIl est possible de consulter le jeu de données des relevés d&#39;oiseaux du port d&#39;Halifax relié à ce projet :\n\n- [Relevés des oiseaux aquatiques du port d&#39;Halifax](https://catalogue.ogsl.ca/fr/dataset/ca-cioos_952f8200-0051-4af7-86f2-35e7345fb9f7)</lan:LocalisedCharacterString>\n          </lan:textGroup>\n        </lan:PT_FreeText>\n      </mri:abstract>\n      <mri:credit>\n        <gco:CharacterString></gco:CharacterString>\n      </mri:credit>\n      <mri:status>\n        <mcc:MD_ProgressCode codeList=\"http://standards.iso.org/iso/19115/resources/Codelists/cat/codelists.xml#MD_ProgressCode\" codeListValue=\"onGoing\"></mcc:MD_ProgressCode>\n      </mri:status>\n      <mri:topicCategory>\n        <mri:MD_TopicCategoryCode>oceans</mri:MD_TopicCategoryCode>\n      </mri:topicCategory>\n      <mri:extent>\n        <gex:EX_Extent>\n          <gex:geographicElement>\n            <gex:EX_GeographicBoundingBox>\n              <gex:extentTypeCode>\n                <gco:Boolean>true</gco:Boolean>\n              </gex:extentTypeCode>\n              <gex:westBoundLongitude>\n                <gco:Decimal>-60.38</gco:Decimal>\n              </gex:westBoundLongitude>\n              <gex:eastBoundLongitude>\n                <gco:Decimal>-60.01</gco:Decimal>\n              </gex:eastBoundLongitude>\n              <gex:southBoundLatitude>\n                <gco:Decimal>46.11</gco:Decimal>\n              </gex:southBoundLatitude>\n              <gex:northBoundLatitude>\n                <gco:Decimal>46.33</gco:Decimal>\n              </gex:northBoundLatitude>\n            </gex:EX_GeographicBoundingBox>\n          </gex:geographicElement>\n        </gex:EX_Extent>\n      </mri:extent>\n      <mri:extent>\n        <gex:EX_Extent>\n          <gex:geographicElement>\n            <gex:EX_GeographicDescription>\n              <gex:extentTypeCode>\n                <gco:Boolean>true</gco:Boolean>\n              </gex:extentTypeCode>\n              <gex:geographicIdentifier>\n                <mcc:MD_Identifier>\n                  <mcc:code>\n                    <gco:CharacterString>a5275277-1411-4dd1-a368-0e0263656ad3</gco:CharacterString>\n                  </mcc:code>\n                  <mcc:codeSpace>\n                    <gco:CharacterString>ca.cioos</gco:CharacterString>\n                  </mcc:codeSpace>\n                  <mcc:version>\n                    <gco:CharacterString>1</gco:CharacterString>\n                  </mcc:version>\n                  <mcc:description>\n                    <gco:CharacterString>{&#39;en&#39;: &#39;Port of Sydney, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada&#39;, &#39;fr&#39;: &#39;Port de Sydney, Cap-Breton, Nouvelle-Écosse, Canada&#39;, &#39;translations&#39;: {&#39;fr&#39;: {&#39;verified&#39;: True}}}</gco:CharacterString>\n                  </mcc:description>\n                </mcc:MD_Identifier>\n              </gex:geographicIdentifier>\n            </gex:EX_GeographicDescription>\n          </gex:geographicElement>\n        </gex:EX_Extent>\n      </mri:extent>\n      <mri:extent>\n        <gex:EX_Extent>\n          <gex:verticalElement>\n            <gex:EX_VerticalExtent>\n              <gex:minimumValue>\n                <gco:Real>0</gco:Real>\n              </gex:minimumValue>\n              <gex:maximumValue>\n                <gco:Real>0</gco:Real>\n              </gex:maximumValue>\n              <gex:verticalCRSId>\n                <mrs:MD_ReferenceSystem>\n                  <mrs:referenceSystemIdentifier>\n                    <mcc:MD_Identifier>\n                      <mcc:code>\n                        <gco:CharacterString>5829</gco:CharacterString>\n                      </mcc:code>\n                      <mcc:codeSpace>\n                        <gco:CharacterString>EPSG</gco:CharacterString>\n                      </mcc:codeSpace>\n                      <mcc:version>\n                        <gco:CharacterString>2012-08-10T00:00:00</gco:CharacterString>\n                      </mcc:version>\n                      <mcc:description>\n                        <gco:CharacterString>Instantaneous Water Level height - Height relative to instantaneous water level uncorrected for tide.
