It shows that due to global warming, the frequency and duration of marine heat waves increased by 34% and 17% respectively between 1925 and 2016. Such conclusions and the understanding of the resulting impacts come from long-term datasets as well as modeling carried out by the research teams. This is why a regular, qualitative (with many different sensors other than the water temperature) and long term monitoring is of major importance. Especially in areas such as the Canadian Arctic which is a carbon sink and is suffering from acidification and high-speed warming.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This project will establish regular oceanographic monitoring, through a voluntary observing ship which serves several communities along the coast and transits a range of environments including estuaries, arctic fjords and open ocean coastline and shelf zones. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physico-chemical measurements will be made in the ocean regularly and will allow the understanding of past changes to anticipate future changes.
