| Resource Purpose |
GW Solutions understands that the overall objectives of the work and research completed in collaboration with UNBC were:
• To generate maps and tools to visualize the use of the land, and the movement of water in the Kiskatinaw watershed because it is presently the source of water used by the City of Dawson Creek.
• To characterize and understand the seasonal fluctuation of the water regime, particularly during periods of low flows (to prevent lacking water supply), and during period of high flows (to minimize the risks of flood and to be better prepared to anticipate floods).
• To develop methodologies to relate how the water regime can be modified by the land use, particularly modifications associated with the anticipated growth of oil & gas activities.
• To develop methodologies to relate how the water quality can be modified by the land use, particularly modifications associated with the anticipated growth of oil & gas activities.
• To develop models to project mid-term and long-term effects of climate change on the water regime. |
