Boreal Wetland Center

Wetlands remain an integral ecosystem under immense pressures from human development. Connecting people to the importance of local wetlands is vital for the protection of these areas.

​

Dr Ketcheson has partnered with Ducks Unlimited to establish a wetland hydrology monitoring network at the Wetland Centre near Grand Prairie AB. The Centre has recently launched a new branch of iWetland: a citizen science project that invites the public to participate in measuring water levels along an interpretive trail. 

​

Future expansion of the monitoring network and citizen science program will continue to promote wetland science, appreciation, and protection.
