Project Description
The project will support improved monitoring and risk assessment programmes through the development of models and tools that can be employed to predict the impacts of contaminants related to changing urban environments and climate on aquatic ecosystems. This work will focus on creating and applying knowledge necessary for predicting and interpreting the impacts of urbanization (e.g. wastewater, storm water, population growth) in the context of variability (natural and anthropogenic) at the watershed scale. This will form the foundation for building frameworks for consideration of multiple stressors that are a major challenge for watershed management, especially in the face of global environmental change.
