Before Canadian researchers head off for fieldwork in the Arctic region, they make a special stop along the way to visit their own outfitters and travel agents! At NRCan’s Ottawa facility, the Polar Continental Shelf Program stocks everything from survival gear to snow mobiles.

Projects aren’t always about just the science for NRCan researchers! Watch our full video here: https://ow.ly/GkW450ZFCSc

At the North Pole, below the ice and 4,200 meters of water, you’ll find the seafloor where sediment has been deposited for over 56 million years.

Tools like the Canadian Forest Fire Danger Rating System are crucial for wildfire management and mitigation—helping us predict how wildfires will behave and keep communities safe. Info: https://ow.ly/TmoC50ZBqo3 📸 Assets from Alberta provided by Alberta Wildfire

Canadian scientists have made it to Svalbard, Norway, and are about to start the 2026 Canada-Sweden Arctic Ocean Expedition.

Last summer, Canadian scientists sailed the Arctic Ocean. This year, they’re doing it again!

Science takes our experts to some remarkable places. 🚢 Last week, NRCan researchers from the Geological Survey of Canada were aboard the Canadian Coast Guard Ship Amundsen off the coast of Makkovik in Labrador. There, they were collecting important information on the ocean and its seafloor!

Les 30 ans d’archives d’images satellites RADARSAT constituent désormais une seule série chronologique, grâce à laquelle les utilisateurs peuvent noter les tendances, observer les variations au fil du temps et prendre des décisions éclairées. https://ow.ly/ZLYs50Znvr2

RADARSAT’s thirty-year record of imagery now works as one continuous timeline, where users can identify trends, track changes over time and make informed decisions. https://ow.ly/HFNO50Znvrk

While satellite imagery can show us remote regions and track surface changes over time, it can't reveal what's happening underwater. In March, scientists from NRCan mapped Antarctica’s seabed using a multibeam echosounder to measure glacial retreat.
