| Abstract | Maps are central to our sciences; however, after more than fifteen years of aquifer-scale mapping with hundreds of aquifer maps in store, we still do not have a full portrayal of Canada in terms of the
groundwater and aquifers of our country.
Over the years we have learned many interesting lessons with our mapping of aquifers and groundwater assessments. These are very valuable lessons, which can be used to move from one aquifer-scale mapping to
Canada-wide groundwater assessment and accounting. This very brief presentation intends to provide an update of where we are and where we are heading to by describing a paradigm shift of scales and tools in a new and innovative approach to
groundwater assessment and accounting. |
| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
The Groundwater Geoscience Program presented the current status of its research to the entire department of NRCan on November 2, 2017 via Tandberg and
NRCan Live webcast. The goal was to provide more information about what the program is actually working on. This document includes 6 Power Point Presentations highlighting research projects going on at this time. |
