Water Matters

Early results from an ongoing dissolved oxygen study in the Souris River basin suggest there is not a direct relationship between water flows and the level of oxygen in water. Rather, a number of factors play a role in low oxygen conditions when they occur.

On April 9 and 10, the IJC hosted a two-day private virtual gathering that brought together Indigenous knowledge holders, academics, scientists, water resources practitioners, students, IJC staff and other experts passionate about protecting shared waters.

As the International Lake Champlain-Richelieu River Flood Study enters the final year of its mandate, the project’s study board is starting to deliberate on its recommendations to the International Joint Commission.
