The University of Calgary is seeking to procure a fully integrated experimental mesocosm system from Integrated Aqua to align with the existing mesocosm infrastructure at the Marna Lab within the Hakai Institute’s Quadra Island Observatory. This acquisition is essential to ensure experimental consistency between two distinct coastal ecosystems—Barkley Sound and Baynes Sound—enabling synchronized, replicated climate manipulation studies across geographically separated sites. The system must be fully compatible with the existing hardware and protocols at the Hakai Institute to support coordinated scientific research and data comparability in climate impact studies. The procurement is formalized under solicitation number AB-2026-03765, with responses due by May 21, 2026, and is managed by Melissa Innes, Contracting Authority at the University of Calgary. Although listed under the Government of Canada, the procurement is specifically for the University’s research objectives in partnership with the Hakai Institute to advance coastal ecosystem modeling and climate resilience science.

Full Description

Show more
The University of Calgary plans to purchase a fully integrated experimental mesocosm system from Integrated Aqua. The system is specifically designed to complement the Marna Lab Integrated Aqua mesocosm system at the Hakai Institute’s Quadra Island Observatory, a project partner. It is a mandatory requirement to maintain consistency which will enable coordinated experimental designs across two geographically distinct coastal ecosystems (Barkley Sound and Baynes Sound). This paired infrastructure will allow scientists to conduct replicated climate manipulation experiments providing data informing the mesocosm experiments at both sites.
