How will Climate Change impact Nova Scotia/ Atlantic Canada?
Atlantic Canada is located on the eastern side of Canada, which is Canada's coastline and
borders the Atlantic Ocean. It consists of four provinces: Nova Scotia, Quebec, New Brunswick,
and Prince Edward (Vogel et al., 2020). It is commonly known for its freshest seafood, beautiful
fishing villages, sandy beaches, and stunning marine wildlife. It is also known for fruit growing
and its tourism industries. The area's population is estimated to be around two million five
hundred thousand people, and they are all familiar with their cities.
The current climate of Atlantic Canada has an average temperature ranging between -8 to
-2 degrees Celsius during Winter and between 9 to 13 degrees Celsius during summer. In Nova
Scotia, the temperature seems to range below 30 degrees Celsius. The area tends to have lots of
fogs and mist because of the ocean currents created by warm and cool currents when they meet.
The province is also cool because of the water body near it. It also helps them to be a bit warmer
than Central Canada during Winter. In 2017, the total precipitation in Nova Scotia was 1530,
which is suitable for the fruit-growing industry (Greenan et al., 2019). The province grows rare
and delicate fruit species such as grapes at the moment. The future climate of Atlantic Canada is,
we expect more rainfall in the regions and frequent storms. The temperature is likely to increase
to around 20 degrees Celsius during summer. It can be 0 degrees Celsius during winter, making
the ice melt faster and water takes over the beaches.
