We perform research, collect and disseminate evidence, and identify policy opportunities to support the growth of sustainable Northern Communities. Our operations are located in Thunder Bay and Sudbury. We seek to enhance Northern Ontario’s capacity to take the lead position on socio-economic policy that impacts Northern Ontario, Ontario, and Canada as a whole. About the Series This Human Capital Series is an update of an earlier series published in partnership with Northern Ontario Workforce Planning. Workforce Planning Ontario is a network of 26 Workforce Planning Boards covering four regions across the province. Workforce Planning Boards gather intelligence on local labour market supply and demand, and work in partnership with employers, employment services, educators, researchers, economic development, government and other stakeholders to identify, understand and address labour market issues. This includes supporting and coordinating local responses to meet current and emerging workforce needs. Given the unique geography and labour market issues that impact Northern Ontario, all 6 planning boards in the north have collaborated to form Northern Ontario Workforce Planning. They include: Algoma Workforce Investment Corporation (AWIC); Far Northeast Training Board (FNETB); The Labour Market Group (LMG); Northwest Training and Adjustment Board (NTAB); North Superior Workforce Planning Board (NSWPB); and Workforce Planning for Sudbury & Manitoulin (WPSM). FNETB and NSWPB are currently pilot sites for Local Employment Planning Councils (LEPC).

St. Croix Watershed Research Station, Science Museum of Minnesota, Marine on St. Croix, Minnesota. Executive Summary 1) Sediment cores recovered from seven basins in southern Lake of the Woods in 2012 were analyzed to reconstruct a historical phosphorus budget for the southern lake from 1900-2011. 2) Sediment cores were subjected to multiple analyses including radioisotopic dating with Pb-210 to establish a date-depth relationship for each core, loss-on-ignition to determine major sediment constituents, biogenic silica to estimate historical diatom productivity, diatom communities to identify ecological changes and estimate historical water column total phosphorus (TP), extraction and determination of phosphorus (P) fractions, and extraction of fossil pigments to quantify the historical abundance of various algal groups. 3) Pre-damming sediments were between 17 and 30 cm deep depending on basin (Buffalo Bay is an outlier with pre-damming sediments only 7.5 cm deep), and sediments in all basins are predominantly inorganic (> 70% dry weight) and secondarily organic matter (typically 10-20% dry weight).
