The Coriolis II is a Canadian research vessel.[1][2] She is homeported in Rimouski, Quebec. She is operated by a consortium of five institutions: Institut des sciences de la mer à Rimouski (ISMER); the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM); McGill University and the Institut national de la recherche scientifique-eau, terre et environnement (INRS-ETE) and the Maurice Lamontagne Institute (MLI-DFO).

The vessel was built in 1990 for the Canadian Coast Guard.[3]

The vessel is 50 metres long, and berths 22.[4][5] The vessel's research efforts currently lies between Île d’Orléans and the Cabot Strait.[6]
