Bounded by three oceans, Canada has a vital interest in the impact of changing ocean processes on weather patterns, resources, and transportation. The Canadian SOLAS (Surface Ocean Lower Atmosphere Study) Research Network is part of a new International SOLAS initiative aimed at understanding the interactions between the oceans and the atmosphere and the implications of those interactions for global climate change. The Canadian SOLAS is funded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, Canadian Foundation for Climate and Atmospheric Sciences, Dalhousie University and our network partners the Department of Fisheries and Oceans and the Meteorological Service Of Canada.
