Les systèmes marins

Avec un océan, un archipel de 35 000 îles, la baie de Baffin et la baie d’Hudson, la mer joue un rôle central dans l’économie de subsistance et la culture de l’Arctique canadien. Les projets qui y sont liés visent à mieux comprendre la réponse des systèmes et écosystèmes marins aux pressions du changement climatique et de la modernisation.
