abstract | Climate change is the most critical issue impacting water management in the Columbia River Basin. Existing water monitoring networks are insufficient to track and understand these impacts. The goal of the Columbia Basin Water Monitoring Framework is to establish a unified monitoring framework based on a Priority Monitoring Matrix that reflects local priorities within a scientific water balance approach. This collaborative approach, facilitated by Living Lakes Canada, will improve and strengthen the monitoring configuration for tracking and understanding a broader range of implications of climate change on the water supply for Basin ecosystems and its people. |
