Coastal development, Driver of Environmental Change: eDrivers Project for the St.Lawrence System
St. Lawrence Global ObservatoryTerrestrial stable lights at night mostly represent light from human settlements and industrial sites with electricity. We thus used lights at night as a proxy of coastal infrastructure development. The data come from the Nighttime Lights Time Series.…

Commercial fisheries intensity, Driver of Environmental Change: eDrivers Project for the St.Lawrence System
St. Lawrence Global ObservatoryThe impacts of fisheries activities in the St. Lawrence are evaluated using DFO fisheries logbooks program. While logbooks are not mandatory for all fisheries in the St. Lawrence, they still provide a very thorough overview of the spatial distribution and…

Toxic algae, Driver of Environmental Change: eDrivers Project for the St. Lawrence System
St. Lawrence Global ObservatoryThe data we use to describe the risk of toxic algae come from an expert based map delineating the areas where coastal areas are at risk from five different toxins. The map presents coastal areas at risk from: 1) paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) toxins from…

Acidification, Driver of Environmental Change: eDrivers Project for the St. Lawrence System
St. Lawrence Global ObservatoryOceans are the largest reservoirs and sinks of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). Its uptake increases seawater acidity and lowers the saturation state of waters with respect to calcite (ΩC) and aragonite (ΩA), the two most common CaCO3 polymorphs that…
