Research Projects

This project explores the impacts of technology on the safe and efficient delivery of pilotage services in Canada and around the world.

In this article we explore some of the key advances since the days of paper charts and sextants that are keeping modern ships safe from catastrophic accidents.

Ships are increasing in size and number to carry trade through Canada’s Pacific region. This study assesses future ship traffic patterns up to 2040.

Learn about new research to understand how accessible, accurate and timely weather, water, ice and climate data support safe navigation in the Canadian Arctic.

Meaningful participation in Canada’s marine sector for Indigenous people – what will it take?

In collaboration with the University of British Columbia (UBC), Clear Seas is undertaking a project to develop innovative solutions to ship-source underwater noise to help make the ocean soundscape less stressful to marine mammals.

Come aboard a Canadian Coast Guard research vessel for a day in the life at sea, collecting data to reduce underwater noise and protect marine mammals.
