Statment: This Collection groups oceanographic monitoring datasets collected in and around Bedford Basin, Nova Scotia. A dataset qualifies for membership if its spatial extent falls within Bedford Basin or its approaches. The Collection is assembled and maintained by CIOOS Atlantic, drawing together contributing programs such as the Fisheries and Oceans Canada Bedford Basin Monitoring Program (weekly time series operated from the Bedford Institute of Oceanography since 1992), Ocean Frontier Institute / MEOPAR profiler data, and Dalhousie University's Bedford Basin Ocean Monitoring Buoy and related time-series work. Governing frameworks and funding span DFO's oceanographic research mandate, MEOPAR, and the Ocean Frontier Institute.
