C1W Feature by Agriculture Canada - 3D model to map the fate of Canada’s water in a changing climate
Agriculture Canada (AAFC) has featured the Canada1Water initiative, and discussed the fate of Canada’s water in a changing climate. The project is Canada’s first 3D model describing the entire water (hydrological) cycle of Canada. It tracks every part; from evaporation and transpiration to precipitation and snowmelt runoff.
NRCAN Webinar Series Feature – Canada1Water Overview: A National-scale Hydroclimatological Modelling Initiative For Climate Change Impact Analysis
Dr. Steve Frey was invited to give a presentation on the C1W project as part of the CWRA's webinar series. This webinar provided a platform to discuss the significance of the project and its potential implications for water resource management in Canada, as well as an overview of the C1W model and dataset development, and how to access project data/deliverables through the soon to launch C1W Data Portal.
C1W Feature in the Water Canada January/February 2024 eMagazine - Mapping Water’s Future: Canada1Water offers tools for community focused sustainable water management
Water Canada's latest edition shines a spotlight on the groundbreaking Canada1Water project, offering readers an in-depth look into its mission and potential impact, as well as for the increasing need of an accurate, integrated, forward-looking model to help resolve uncertainties and set sustainable strategies. To find out how Canada1Water aims to fill that gap, we encourage you to read this months issue of Water Canada, featuring Andrew Kirkwood.
C1W Feature in the Winter 2024 Edition of Ground Water Canada – Water Project in Stretch Run
“The Canada1Water project is a good start in evaluating the dangers that climate change poses to water resources and to Canadian society at large. The groundwater industry, including water resources engineers, policy and decision makers, community planners, and so on – they will all benefit from a comprehensive modelling and data framework that will enable us all to mitigate impacts and adapt more effectively to the changing reality brought on by climate change.”
Canada1Water: 2023 Progress Report
The Canada1Water continues to make steady progress toward our goal of providing Canadians with a comprehensive data/modelling framework and decision support system to evaluate the sustainability of water resources under a changing climate. The 2023 Progress Meeting and Summary Report provides a comprehensive overview of project progress up to June 2023.
