5203 |a"Several Government of Canada ocean monitoring programs have deployed ocean surface drifting buoys off the coasts of British Columbia in the Pacific Ocean and Canada's northern territories in the Arctic Ocean. This report covers a total of 1397 drifter tracks from 13 different types of ocean surface drifting buoys deployed both near and offshore of Canada's Pacific and Arctic coasts over 2014-2020. The surface drifters provide position data from GPS satellites in near real-time as they float along the ocean surface while being driven by ocean currents, waves, and the wind. The resultant data offers high resolution temporal and spatial insights into circulation pathways and aids further understanding of surface drift in both nearshore coastal and offshore waters. The data can be applied to the calibration and verification of simple and complex ocean surface circulation models, which can in turn help answer questions related to pollution monitoring and abatement, search and rescue, and why a particular beach may or may not be seeded by free-floating animal eggs such as clam larvae"--Abstract, page vi.
