authorLiving Lakes Canada
abstractThe goal of the Columbia Basin Water Monitoring Framework is to establish a unified monitoring network based on a Priority Monitoring Matrix that reflects local community priorities and concerns within a scientific water balance approach. In 2022, Living Lakes Canada piloted this innovative approach to water monitoring in three pilot areas. The watershed security and adaptation work being facilitated by Living Lakes Canada in the Canadian Columbia Basin can serve as a paradigm-changing template that can be applied in other regions.
