| Abstract | The Water Resources Characterisation and Modelling (WRCM) Project is intended to support hydrogeological studies by the development of innovative approaches tailored to emerging issues threatening water
resources across Canada. The Project has scientific collaborations with public and private sectors (e.g., governments, firms, and universities), to address specific issues related to sustainable water resources management, and to provide a strong
scientific base to stakeholders involved in water management.
Recent advances include: Development of innovative methods for aquifer characterisation; Advances in validation of satellite-base gravity data for water resources monitoring;
Hydrogeological modelling studies to better support water resources allocation and management. |

On October 14, 2020 all project leaders under the GGP intended to present virtually the status of their research to all NRCan employees wanting to
attend. Due to technical difficulties the event was cancelled. All five of the PowerPoint presentations prepared for this event are included in this synthesis and the pre-recorded presentations can be seen on YouTube via this link:
