Overview This layer, prepared by the Commission for Environmental Cooperation (CEC), represents mean monthly temperature values for the month of February across North America for the 1981–2010 climatological reference period, in degrees Celsius. The layer is part of a 12-raster-file (one per month) dataset derived from a kilometer-scale climate product generated using the CHELSA downscaling model, and represents long-term climatological means. The North American monthly temperature layers were derived from the CHELSA Climatologies v2.1 dataset, which is based on statistically downscaled temperature and precipitation data at a spatial resolution of 30 arc-seconds (~1 km). CHELSA (Climatologies at High Resolution for the Earth's Land Surface Areas) applies a statistical downscaling approach to atmospheric temperature fields to produce high-resolution climate surfaces.

Canadians have long served their country by participating in numerous wars and conflicts. Over the years, individual citizens, veterans organizations and service clubs have raised thousands of memorials across the country to honour those sailors, soldiers, airmen and women who made great sacrifices towards the restoration of world peace and served their country so well. In keeping with our proud military heritage, Canadians erected cenotaphs in municipal centres, raised monuments in parks, cemeteries and public areas. Church members have mounted plaques and stained glass windows as memorials, and cairns and fountains have been constructed as important landmarks marking various military involvement. All of this is done to mark the service of family, friends and comrades, and to ensure that these important and not so well known battles and events form part of our communal memory. Visit Memorials - Remembrance - Veterans Affairs Canada for memorials and war cemeteries in Canada and around the world that honour Canadians who have served.

GFS model output is processed into APCP rasters that capture accumulated precipitation over a 7‑day forecast period. These rasters are then combined with watershed boundary data, and zonal statistics are applied to compute average precipitation for each sub‑basin. The final polygon features provide a clear depiction of global rainfall and snowfall patterns, offering critical information for disaster risk management and international water resource planning.
