Canada Research Chair in Ecohydrology
EF 2018-19
Résumé
The Canada Research Chair in Ecohydrology will investigate ecosystem services related to water resources. In particular, research will focus on (i) ecohydrology of agricultural systems, noting that more than 70% of human water use is for agriculture; (ii) carbon fluxes in ecohydrological systems, addressing questions of how the water cycle and the carbon cycle interact; and (iii) improving resilience of managed ecohydrologic systems. Research approaches will include field-based experiments, remote sensing and modeling approaches. Key collaborations will be developed to ensure engagement with research users and stakeholders while providing novel training opportunities to students and postdoctoral fellows.
