Aaron Fisk spoke with @CBCNews about the scientific impacts of the 'draconian' ways south of the border since Trump's inauguration, severely impacting Canada's ability to collaborate with U.S. in the #GreatLakes region. @RAEON_ @ScienceUWindsor cbc.ca/news/science/t…
Sean Carey's op-ed highlights the renewed need to monitor/research Canada's water as threats to the valuable resource continue "...so that we can defend our water security against challenges posed by the climate, our activities, and from our neighbours" gwfo.ca/documents/ht_1…

The five-year vertical ice loss on Peyto Glacier exceeds 50 metres in some parts of the glacier and Peyto Glacier has literally 'disintegrated' in response to the 2021 heat dome and exceptional heat and snow drought in 2023. @CentreForHydro @usask_water townandcountrytoday.com/beyond-local/p…

Since 2016, the #UWaterloo Global Water Futures program has been driving innovation in water research to deliver real-world solutions for a sustainable future. 🌍 Explore the program's impact report now: bit.ly/40mBNby
"We've always assumed we had plentiful #water, but recent years in British Columbia, Saskatchewan, and even parts of the North have shown that we don't have secure reliable water supplies all the time" - John Pomeroy @CentreForHydro @usask_water @usask cbc.ca/news/science/m…
Les États-Unis voudront-ils bientôt détourner l’eau du Canada?/Will the United States soon want to divert water from Canada? GWF & GWFO Director John Pomeroy: "... if Americans continue to act the way they’re doing, they’re going to need more water.” ledevoir.com/monde/etats-un…

High school students visited @RAEON_ and gained hands-on experience with underwater gliders used to monitor Great Lakes ecosystems, including operating the gliders and exploring their mechanics! Read more: uwindsor.ca/dailynews/2024…
We’re excited to announce our 2025 Conversation Series! This series celebrates the voices of women and gender-diverse individuals leading the charge in water research, advocacy, and innovation. #WomenPlusWater Registration is now open: water.usask.ca/women-plus-wat…
Amazing research from the @formbloom project!
The ever-growing frequency and severity of harmful algal blooms (HABs) have left resource managers searching for answers as to what is causing it. @usask_water @LaurierGeogEnv Check out how changing source water inflow management can alter water quality ➡️ow.ly/A2YP50UqXKR
Glaciers worldwide are melting due to climate change. In response, the UN has declared 2025 the Year of Glacier Preservation. 🏔️ In the Canadian Rockies, these ice giants fuel breathtaking ecosystems—but their rapid changes are alarming. @CBSMornings cbsnews.com/video/the-figh…
Water security needs water intelligence. "...long-term data, are the foundation upon which numerical water models guide future planning and risk assessments." gwfo.ca/documents/the-…
