Research & development and related science activities in Environment Canada.: En83-12/7E-PDF

"The Working Group on R&D Priority Setting and S&T Capacity, a subgroup of Environment Canada's S&T Advisory Board, requested a synopsis on the types and amounts of major research and development (R&D) and related science activities (RSA) in each of the Department's four business lines. This information can be used to provide advice to the Deputy Minister on the balance between R&D and RSA in Environment Canada, where any gaps need to be addressed, and relative priorities. This work forms part of the Advisory Board's role in championing S&T for the Department and contributing to Environment Canada's R&D agenda. To meet this need, the Science Policy Branch of the Ecosystem Science Directorate retained GCSI – Global Change Strategies International Inc. – to develop this synopsis report. The report that follows provides some background on the Department and its science and technology components and challenges, indicates the key R&D and RSA areas and their estimated resource allocations for 1999-2000, and offers commentary on how this information can be used"--Purpose of this report, page 3.
