The 53rd Canadian Symposium on Water Quality Research, organized by Canadian Association on Water Quality (CAWQ), is taking place in Toronto, on February 22 2018. Dr. Fereidoun Rezanezhad is presenting an invited talk, titled: "Wetlands hydrogeochemical processes under changing winter conditions”.

Additional information about CAWQ can be found at their website.

Adrian in  Haifa Israel
Israel Institute of Technology (Haifa, Israel) as part of his project’s ongoing collaboration with Dr. Alex Furman at the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Technion. During his two-week research visit Adrian worked closely with Dr. Furman (his co-advisor) on hydraulic parameter estimation from a series of experiments conducted in the Ecohydrology laboratory, tapping into Dr.

This week, Dr. Philippe Van Cappellen and Dr. Fereidoun Rezanezhad from the Ecohydrology Research Group are presenting their research at the 2018 Ocean Science Meeting (February 11-16, 2018) in Portland, Oregon. Philippe will give an invited talk on "Global Modifications of Nutrient Delivery to the Coastal Zone by River Damming" in session CD53A: Land-Ocean Linkages Along Shallow Coastlines Under Human Impact, organized by Fereidoun and his colleagues of the Baltic TRANSCOAST program in Germany.

The April 2018 issue of Applied Geochemistry includes a publication by Ekaterina Markelova, Raoul-Marie Couture, Chris Parsons, Igor Markelov, Benoit Madé, Philippe Van Cappellen, and Laurent Charlet. The publication, titled "Speciation dynamics of oxyanion contaminants (As, Sb, Cr) in argillaceous suspensions during oxic-anoxic cycles" is an experimental and modelling study assessing contaminant migration from the argillaceous waste repositories.

Environmental Science & Technology articles ASAP (as soon as publishable) now features a publication by Adrian Mellage, Christina Smeaton, Alex Furman, Estella Atekwana, Fereidoun Rezanezhad and Philippe Van Cappellen. The paper titled "Linking spectral induced polarization (SIP) and subsurface microbial processes: Results from sand column incubation experiments" focuses on the monitoring of microbial growth in porous media using spectral induced polarization (SIP).

The Global Water Futures (GWF) Inception Meeting was hosted byWilfird Laurier Univeristy at the Balsillie School of international Affairs from January 22 to January 23. The meeting brought together core team leads and the primary investigators (PI's) of the GWF-funded projects from the 2017 Pillar 1 - 3 calls for the first time. The aim of the meeting was to allow attendees to gain a broad overview the GWF program, identify strategic needs and discuss opportunities for collaboration.
