Our network is at the cutting edge of knowledge creation in northern Canada.
CNNRO member facilities range from oceanographic research vessels and long-established research institutes and observatories, to seasonal field stations and un-staffed remote monitoring installations. We are widespread, representing every major ecological region in Canada’s North.
