Over the next four years, the funding will support Dubé's development of The Healthy River Ecosystem Assessment System (THREATS). Once completed, the specialized software program will enable scientists to assess and adaptively manage the cumulative effects of man-made developments on Canadian freshwaters.
This project involves scientists at Dalhousie University and the Universities of New Brunswick, Waterloo, Saskatchewan, Calgary and British Columbia. It also involves watersheds in B.C. (Fraser River), Alberta and Saskatchewan (South Saskatchewan River), Ontario (Grand River), and New Brunswick (Saint John River). As well, six PhD students will be trained in a team-based model of their own to encourage development of a high-performance, collaborative student network across Canada.
