Abstract

The GWFO secretariat, based at the University of Saskatchewan, is responsible for the planning and coordination of network activities, ensuring the continued operation and proper functioning of the facility, tracking and reporting usage metrics, and liaison with management, oversight, and advisory committees in the execution of these tasks.

The GWFO facility leads oversee and direct operations and data collection at the instrumented sites, laboratories, and deployable systems, or work directly with others responsible for the sites to support operations and act as GWFO liaisons. The leads are professors and faculty from our partner institutions who supervise technical and data management staff.

GWFO technicians are responsible for the installation, operation, and maintenance of field equipment and deployable systems, and for gathering data from these systems and liaising with data managers to ensure preservation and accessibility of data.  Technicians assist and/or manage GWFO laboratories and oversee sample analyses and maintenance of lab equipment.
