Environment and Climate Change Canada. Measuring Environment Canada's research and development performance (2014) [electronic resource]. [Gatineau, Quebec] : Environment and Climate Change Canada, c2016. v, 31 p. : ill. Issued also in French under title: Mesure du rendement en matière de recherche et développement à Environnement Canada (2014). Science is the foundation of Environment Canada’s work. Research and development (R&D) supports many of the Department’s science-based functions, including its legislative obligations, commitment to be a world class regulator, enforcement activities, weather services and policy development. R&D is an integral component of the Department’s science; as such, regular assessment is important. The objective of this report is to provide an updated assessment of Environment Canada’s R&D performance. The report establishes baseline measures of R&D performance according to the principles of Environment Canada’s Science Strategy 2014-2019: Relevance, Transparency, Responsiveness, Excellence and Collaboration. Where possible, the report compares current and past performance, as assessed in the 2009 report Measuring Environment Canada’s Research and Development Performance. In order to clearly distinguish R&D from other scientific work, this report draws on Statistics Canada definitions. Science and technology (S&T) includes two elements: R&D and related scientific activities (RSA). R&D activities focus on the production of new scientific knowledge. RSA, such as monitoring, focus on applying existing scientific knowledge. gccst Federal departments gccst Research and development gccst Performance assessment Mesure du rendement en matière de recherche et développement à Environnement Canada (2014) (CaOODSP)9.815049 PDF 1.36 MB https://publications.gc.ca/collections/collection_2016/eccc/En14-14-2016-eng.pdf
