It’s been great having the Müller lab working up at #turkeylakeswatershed the past few years! There are so many different ecosystem components that can be studied here and Algae is just one example🤩
#Collaboration #ecosystemscience #longtermstudy #experimentalwatershed
Happy #WorldAlgaeDay! Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) are single celled #algae.
**How many cyanobacteria genera can you spot?**
#forWaterHQP in the Müller lab at @WaterlooBio study how cyanobacterial communities impact #drinkingwater reservoirs in a changing climate.

Does the composition of #cyanobacteria fluctuate daily in the water column of oligotrophic lakes?
Learn about the importance of multi-timepoint, multi-depth sampling in lake and reservoir monitoring programs to describe cyanobacteria community dynamics.

Yesterday was #WorldWildlifeDay.. Throwback to Day 3 of Source to Tap Training Week 2022 in BC where we observed the Western Toad #migration and discussed the importance of protecting and conserving forested #watersheds. Thanks to @tlvirg for the cinematic toad video!

Wetlands cover around 6% of the Earth’s land surface & are vital for human health, food supply & livelihoods. Yet these unique ecosystems are vanishing three times faster than forests.
More on the importance of protecting wetlands on #WorldWetlandsDay.

In the Media: A study by WI member Daniel Scott reveals the energy used to make artificial snow in Canada is equal to the annual energy consumption of 43,000 homes, and the water consumption could fill up more than 17,300 Olympic-sized swimming pools.

This Sunday is #CanadianRiversDay. Throwback to @forWaterNetwork Dr Monica Emelko (@WaterlooENG ) and Dr Michael Stone (@GeogWaterloo) discussing the hydrology and management considerations regarding water quality and treatability of the Grand River during the CIVE 670 field trip

We were inspired by the work of @forWaterNetwork and included fire threats for source water vulnerability assessments considering climate change. I can’t say I expected an extreme fire danger to materialize so soon after our contract ended.

Thank you @HSInquiry for publishing my interview with Dr Monica Emelko (@forWaterNetwork )
Vol 13 focussed on Climate Change and Health. Our interview discusses the role forested watersheds play in water treatability and the impacts of climate change to #drinkingwaterquality
"Healthy forest, healthy water" - Monica Emelko shared insights with Harshina Brijlall (@harshina_b), a PhD student in the #forWaterNetwork.
