Research in Progress Talk: For the love of water. Recent applied hydrology projects in the Yukon
Advertisement
The role of hydrology research can involve explaining and addressing unexpected, complex, often chaotic, water behaviour. In a majority of cases, we are the problem. We keep underestimating how flowing water adjusts to our actions.
This presentation summarizes the context and the results of four hydrology projects taking place in different Yukon settings.
🗓️ Wednesday, November 25th
⏰ 12 p.m. - 1 p.m.
📍 Yukon University's Ayamdigut Campus, Lecture Hall, room A2206
MEET THE SPEAKER:
YukonU's Dr. Benoit Turcotte has learned from small streams and large rivers since teenage years. His favourite nerding activity consists in catching the moment when water and ice are laughing at our ambitions to control them. His ultimate goal as a researcher is to improve our relationship with dynamic stream environments.
ABOUT THE EVENT:
Co-hosted by YukonU and Yukon Science Institute
Talks are open and free to the public, students, staff and faculty.
Cookies and coffee will be served.
