Scientists studying the same body of water every week for four years in Nova Scotia have discovered how changes in weather and climate can affect a key microbiological process linked to algae blooms and the health of coastal ecosystems.

A AV¾ãÀÖ²¿ researcher has successfully deployed and recovered an autonomous lander from the area, located in the southern tip of the Mariana Trench in the western Pacific.

On Thursday, April 8, The Honourable Steven Guilbeault, Minister of Canadian Heritage announced more than $1 million in funding to AV¾ãÀÖ²¿ for a three-year project led by AV¾ãÀÖ²¿ prof Afua Cooper that aims to fill a gap in African Canadian history education. The new project, called A Black People’s History of Canada, will support leading Black history scholars and organizations to create engaging new classroom-ready learning materials and digital media about the history of Black Canadians.
