Grant: Canada Research Chairs
Université Laval
$200,000.00
Aquatic Ecosystem Studies
FY 2020-21
Summary
The Canada Research Chair program in Aquatic Ecosystem Studies is focused on how northern freshwater and coastal marine ecosystems are responding to environmental change, with the aim to generate a predictive understanding of future change and to guide monitoring and management strategies for these high latitude waters. Microscopic life underpins the biological production, food web processes, nutrient fluxes and biodiversity of these ecosystems, and the chair research program places emphasis on an improved understanding of this microbial world in lakes, wetlands, streams and fjords. This research directly addresses Canadas environmental needs and international responsibilities in polar research and reporting.
