Prairie Water Problems

December 19, 2014 — 
The Province of Manitoba's Hydrologic Forecast Centre announced on December 16, 2014, that flow rates and levels for most major rivers and lakes are above normal. The Centre continues to gather information that will contribute to flood forecasts for the Spring of 2015. In the Riddell Faculty at the University of Manitoba, water quality and quantity is the focus of a number of researchers including Dr. Genevieve Ali of the Department of Geological Sciences. Her research described here reveals the challenges flood forecasters face.
