The Water Conversation Action Plan outlines 20 short-term actions and five long-term actions that will further safeguard drinking water supplies, improve how we manage lakes and enhance groundwater protection during oil and gas development. The Action Plan, along with Our Water, Our Future: A Conversation with Albertans, Summary of Discussions and Alberta’s Water Research and Innovation Strategy 2014: A Renewal reflect feedback from Albertans during the Water Conversation engagement initiative held in 2013. “Albertans want to ensure that water quality and quantities remain strong for the future. Alberta has managed its water resources prudently for more than a century and these short- and long-term actions will help ensure that we will continue to effectively manage our water to benefit all Albertans.” - Kyle Fawcett, Minister of Environment and Sustainable Resource Development Highlights of the Water Conversation Action Plan include • Enhancing lake health governance systems to clarify roles and responsibilities; • Implementing science-based standards for baseline water well testing near hydraulic fracturing operations; • Working with municipalities to improve the sustainability of municipal water systems; • Laying the groundwork on new frameworks to reduce water use by oil sands producers and better manage tailings ponds; and, • Establishing protected water through government-led initiatives and university-led research. More than 1,000 people attended over 30 Water Conversation community meetings. Separate meetings were held with First Nations and Métis in recognition of their special relationship with water and land. In addition, about 760 people completed water conversation surveys and 353 submissions were received by email, Twitter, blog and letter.

It was prepared under the direction of the Canadian National Committee for the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (CNC/IUGG). The CNC/IUGG is administered by the Canadian Geophysical Union, in consultation with the Canadian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society and other Canadian scientific organizations, including the Canadian Association of Physicists, the Geological Association of Canada, and the Canadian Institute of Geomatics. The IUGG adhering organization for Canada is the National Research Council of Canada. Among other duties, the CNC/IUGG is responsible for: • collecting and reconciling the many views of the constituent Canadian scientific community on relevant issues • identifying, representing, and promoting the capabilities and distinctive competence of the community on the international stage • enhancing the depth and breadth of the participation of the community in the activities and events of the IUGG and related organizations • establishing the mechanisms for communicating to the community the views of the IUGG and information about the activities of the IUGG. The aim of this report is to communicate to both the Canadian and international scientific communities the research areas and research progress that has been achieved in geodesy and geophysics over the last four years. The main body of this report is divided into eight sections: one for each of the eight major scientific disciplines as represented by the eight sister societies of the IUGG.

  • Taxonomy and Phylogeny of Piophilidae (Diptera)
    Taxonomy and Phylogeny of Piophilidae (Diptera) Sabrina Rochefort Department of Natural Resource Sciences McGill University, Montreal August 2015 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Science © Sabrina Rochefort, 2015 ABSTRACT The worldwide generic classification of Piophilidae (Diptera) is tested using a morphological and molecular phylogenetic analysis, and the Nearctic species of the family are revised. The taxonomic revision includes geographic distributions, capture notes, species descriptions and an identification key to the 43 Nearctic species. Based on the phylogenetic analysis, 20 genera are recognized in the family. Five genera are synonymized: Neopiophila McAlpine, Boreopiophila Frey and Parapiophila McAlpine with Arctopiophila Duda; Neottiophilum Frauenfeld with Mycetaulus Loew; and Stearibia Lioy with Prochyliza Walker. One new Holarctic genus, Borealicola, is described, and a second new genus, not described in this thesis, is recognized for the Australian species Protopiophila vitrea McAlpine. Four new species are described: Arctopiophila mcalpinei, A. variefrontis, Borealicola madaros, and B. skevingtoni. Eighteen new combinations are proposed: Arctopiophila atrifrons (Melander & Spuler), A. baechlii (Merz), A. dudai (Frey), A. flavipes (Zetterstedt), A. kugluktuk (Rochefort & Wheeler), A. lonchaeoides (Zetterstedt), A. nigritellus (Melander), A. nitidissima (Melander & Spuler), A. pectiniventris (Duda), A. penicillata (Steyskal), A. setaluna (McAlpine), A. tomentosa (Frey), A. vulgaris (Fallén), A. xanthostoma (Melander & Spuler), Borealicola fulviceps (Holmgren), B. pseudovulgaris (Ozerov), Mycetaulus praeustum (Meigen) and Prochyliza nigriceps (Meigen). ii RÉSUMÉ La classification mondiale des genres appartenant à la famille des Piophilidae (Diptère) est examinée à l’aide d’une analyse phylogénique incluant des caractères morphologiques et moléculaires, et les espèces Néarctique de la famille sont révisées.

  • A Model for the Hydrologic and Climatic Behavior of Water on Mars
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 98, NO. E6, PAGES 10,973-11,016, JUNE 25, 1993 A Model for the Hydrologicand Climatic Behavior of Water on Mars STEPHEN M. CLIFFORD Lunar and Planetary Institute,Houston, Texas Paststudies of the climaticbehavior of wateron Mars haveuniversally assumed that the atmosphereis the sole pathwayavailable for volatileexchange between the planet'scrustal and polar reservoirs of H20. However,if the planetaryinventory of outgassedH20 exceedsthe pore volume of thecryosphere by morethan a few percent,then a subpermafrostgroundwater system of globalextent will necessarilyresult. The existenceof sucha systemraises the possibilitythat subsurface transport may complementlong-term atmospheric exchange. In thispaper, the hydrologic responseof a water-richMars to climatechange and to the physicaland thermal evolution of its crustis considered. The analysisassumes that the atmosphericleg of the planet'slong-term hydrologic cycle is reasonablydescribed by current models of insolation-drivenexchange. Under the climatic conditionsthat have apparentlyprevailed throughoutmost of Martiangeologic history, the thermalinstability of groundice at low- to mid-latitudeshas led to a netatmospheric transport of H20 fromthe "hot"equatorial region to the colderpoles. Theoretical arguments and variouslines of morphologicevidence suggest that thispoleward flux of H20 hasbeen episodically augmented by additionalreleases of water resultingfrom impacts,catastrophic floods, and volcanism.Given an initially ice- saturatedcryosphere, the deposition of materialat thepoles (or any otherlocation on the planet'ssurface) will result in a situationwhere the local equilibrium depth to the meltingisotherm has been exceeded, melting ice at thebase of the cryosphereuntil thermodynamicequilibrium is once again established.The downwardpercolation of basal meltwaterinto the globalaquifer will resultin the riseof the local watertable in the form of a groundwatermound.
