We have several funded graduate student and postdoc positions available at Dalhousie, UBC, and Univ. Calgary. All are related to coastal flood hazard modelling in Canada and a part of a broader national flood network. Check out the full details here - drive.google.com/file/d/1NcRn71…

Always good to be at an EGU meeting and catch up with European colleagues and see the sights of Vienna

New coastal groundwater field program launched this week in PEI National Park with new MASc student Martina and NSERC USRA summer student Abigail

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS FOR GSA CONNECTS 2025 The GSA Hydrogeology Division of the Geological Society of America (GSA) invites students, early career scientists, professionals, and researchers to submit abstracts for presentation at GSA Connects 2025, 1/3

New from the GW-Project and iNUX: Explore pumping tests interactively with Theis, Hantush-Jacob and Neuman solutions. Analyze data, fit parameters, predict drawdown—all in one app!

New open-access 'Issue Article' on the increase in saline groundwater pumping from coastal aquifers to support on-land aquaculture operations -> guidelines & legislation should be better grounded in coastal hydrogeological science and engineering ngwa.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/gw…

The SOURCE Project, led by researchers from Earth and Environmental Sciences , focuses on using geophysical, oceanographic, and geochemical equipment on the continental shelf surrounding Prince Edward Island (PEI) to discover and map freshwater offshore aquifers (FOAs): youtu.be/kOz9z_si0TE?si…

Congrats to Julia Cantelon for her well-deserved and hard-earned PhD. She was an absolute joy to mentor, and I look forward to hearing about exciting postdoctoral research in the years to come (photo credit - Hayden Tackley)

Call for Abstracts: #GSAConnects2025. Session T099: Hydrology and Hydrogeology of Thawing Cold Regions We're seeking research on cold-region surface & subsurface hydrology in a warming world. Submit here: tinyurl.com/T099GSA #Permafrost #Hydrology #Cryosphere geosociety

🎉Congrats to Hayden Tackley on a successful PhD defence for research on estuary-groundwater interactions -> all summed up in 3 papers and a WIREs Water review accepted right before his defence this morning sciencedirect.com/science/articl… sciencedirect.com/science/articl… sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

2x new PhD positions available in our group with a focus on numerical hydrodynamic modeling of coastal flooding or compound flooding in hypertidal coastal rivers. Details, including how to apply, can be found here -> drive.google.com/file/d/1Ct6j-L…

Ponds are shrinking on Sable Island, so we looked at what drives their volumes. Unlike in well-studied inland ponds, oceanic processes are more important than meteorological processes. Thanks to Julia Cantelon and Sarah Hall for leading and Scott Ketcheson onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/hy…

If you study GW-SW interactions and are going to #AGU25, our session could be a great fit for your abstract: agu.confex.com/agu/agu25/prel… Feel free to reach out to me or co-conveners (tagged here) if you have any questions. Hope to see y'all in NOLA!

Our publication in Hydrological Processes used field data and remote sensing to assess how oceanic and meteorological processes control pond levels on Sable Island! Thank you to my coauthors: Sarah Hall, Barret Kurylyk, and Scott Ketcheson! Available here doi.org/10.1002/hyp.70…

New open access paper in Geomorphology led by Drs. Sam Gagnon (UQAR) and Steph Coulombe (Polar Knowledge Canada) & investigating how focused shallow groundwater flow drives piping and then surface collapse and gullying near Cambridge Bay, Nunavut sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New WIREs Water review paper led by recent PhD grad Hayden Tackley on saltwater intrusion into soils and groundwater near estuaries -> with high-level calculations on global impacts wires.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wa…

Back up at the Canadian High Arctic Research Station in Cambridge Bay, NU with Bay Berry and UQAR colleagues. This year's task -> tons of geophysics

New Nature Cities comment on how increasing groundwater salinity and levels pose threats to coastal urban infrastructure. Such processes should be included in the IPPC Special Report on Climate Change and Cities. Thanks to all coauthors rdcu.be/ezw0x

In the 'pre-lockout era', we joined colleagues from BIO and Queen's Uni to instrument the beach and offshore environment of Martinique Beach to study waves, surges, currents, groundwater salinization, and sediment transport
