Boats, Waves, and the Shore: Learning How They Connect

Vessel-generated wakes are increasingly recognized as a growing physical and ecological disturbance on inland lakes.
Join us to learn the results of a recent local study as well as the findings of other studies. The energy and impact of wakes often exceed those of wind waves, such that recreational boating represents a new source of high energy long period waves.
This work will be shared by Dr. Chris Houser, the Dean of Science and a Professor at the University of Waterloo and coastal geomorphologist.
