The University of Waterloo welcomes participants to the 2016 Annual Meeting of the Canadian Association of Geographers – Ontario Division (CAGONT).
Work with liquid, ion, or gas chromatography, and/or mass spectrometry (MS)? Need extra support to push your research program forward? Come out to the inaugural meeting for the mass spectrometer user group.
There will be a presentation by the University of Waterloo's Mass Spectrometry Facility's Dr. Richard Smith, followed by an open forum for questions.
Seven full-length videos are now available below that feature many of the guest speakers who presented at the Ecohydrology Research Group Research Symposium.
The research group, with support from the Water Institute, held a full-day research symposium on June 16, 2016, featuring coastal ecologists, watershed model developers, and environmental policy researchers from Europe and North America.
The green water of Rio’s outdoor Olympic pools has baffled athletes, organizers and spectators but not Waterloo Biologist Kirsten Müller. She is fairly certain that algae is the culprit.
Although low chlorine levels, minerals and copper can also cause water to look green, it’s the cloudy appearance of the water that suggests the presence of an algal biomass.
Water Institute members are invited to submit proposals for the Water Institute’s Seed Grant Program fall term 2016 competition.
The program aims to stimulate interdisciplinary collaboration, facilitate interaction with national or international authorities, encourage new areas of research, and encourage the development of research proposals.
By Amy Geddes, the Water Institute and Sarah J. Brown, Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change. This is the latest in a series of #UWCommunity stories that feature Waterloo in the community.
Usually, you count yourself lucky to have avoided natural disasters first-hand. But Nature Unleashed: Inside Natural Disasters, the newest exhibit at THEMUSEUM in downtown Kitchener, intentionally immerses visitors in the natural disaster experience via interactive displays.
Sponsored in part by the University of Waterloo in a three-way partnership between Community Relations, the Water Institute and the Interdisciplinary Centre on Climate Change (IC3), visitors of all ages are invited to stand in the eye of a tornado, build a volcano, and move tectonic plates. A dialogue series of public lectures later in the fall, some featuring Waterloo faculty members, will augment the experience.
