A weekly record of the plankton ecosystem in Bedford Basin
Bedford Basin is a marine embayment
encircled by the municipality of Halifax region,
which is the most highly populated area in the Canadian
Atlantic zone. In 1991, a time series was established to record the weekly state
of the plankton ecosystem in this basin. The strategy of regular and perpetual
sampling provides data to assess environmental variability at the weekly, monthly,
seasonal, annual and decadal time scales.
