Freshwater monitoring serves an important role in observing any noticeable change in water quality, in any tested body of water. ACAP Humber Arm has monitored water quality throughout the Humber Valley watershed of western Newfoundland since 2014, and it beginning to establish water monitoring sites within other regions of Newfoundland and Labrador. This comprehensive water quality database serves as a baseline dataset to provide future assessments of changes in water quality for these regions. This initiative has been made possible due to the Support from the Newfoundland and Labrador Department of Municipal Affairs and Environment.

Eastern Charlotte Waterways Inc. (ECW) created an integrated watershed management plan (2020). This plan utilized multiple parameters under three broad categories, biomonitoring, physiochemical, and hydromorphological, to assess the state of watersheds in New Brunswick. This project aims to assess the plan created by ECW to determine whether the chosen parameters and the staff, time, and equipment necessary to monitor those parameters achieve their purpose in the most efficient way possible. This project also aims to add one year of data to the baseline dataset for the West Fundy Composite level 1 watershed. Eleven sites were
monitored in the four major rivers in the West Fundy Composite level 1 watershed: the Magaguadavic River, Digdeguash River, Lepreau River, and New River. On each river, a site was established in the upper reaches, the mouth, and a central point in order to get an understanding of water quality in the largest portion of the river.

Since 1999, the Petitcodiac Watershed Alliance (PWA) has been sampling water to monitor various water quality parameters throughout the Petitcodiac Watershed to gauge the health of our local ecosystem. The objective of our long-term water quality monitoring remains to identify sources of water pollution to help us and our stakeholders improve water quality within the Petitcodiac and Memramcook River watersheds. To fulfill this objective, we collect annual data at 20 long-term monitoring sites once a month from May to October on the following parameters: dissolved oxygen, pH, specific conductivity, total dissolved solids, salinity, water temperature, turbidity, total coliforms, Escherichia coli (E.coli), nitrates and phosphates. Results are compared to relevant water quality guidelines and past data to infer trends in water quality measurements, which allows us to speculate on the potential causes for each parameter’s fluctuations and relationships, and prepare remedial plans when necessary. The PWA engages with community members to improve riparian buffer zones in urban and rural areas and promote best management practices related to watershed management. This program would not be possible without our key funder, the New Brunswick Environmental Trust Fund, and other important funders such as the Government of Canada and RBC.

Temporal coverage: 2015-08-24/2016-08-24

This study examines the impact of recent wildfire on freshwater streams within the North Slave, South Slave, and Dehcho regions of the Northwest Territories (Canada) through analysis of their water chemistry and benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages. Benthic macroinvertebrates, or the macroscopic organisms living within/on the substrate of these streams, were sampled following methodologies outlined by the Canadian Aquatic Biomonitoring Network (CABIN). Biological indices (ex. EPT) were calculated and compared statistically to determine relationships regarding benthic diversity and abundance. Results of this study suggest that recent wildfires cause at minimum short-term perturbations in water quality, such as increased turbidity and TSS. In addition, results indicate slight structural changes in invertebrate communities of burned streams compared to unburned streams, including increased richness and abundance of collector-gatherer taxa. This dataset contains water quality data from 21 streams across the South Slave, and Dehcho regions. This project is funded by the Cumulative Impact Monitoring Program (project 174).

Kawartha Water Watch was established in the summer of 1997, the KWW water quality program was implemented to monitor and improve the health of the Kawartha watershed.  Using data collected from the program, we can develop appropriate remedial measures that can be undertaken by the public to improve the ecosystem health. This program is designed to provide information on the water quality status of our aquatic resources accomplished through the combination of information from our own sampling efforts and from Provincial agencies, KWW allows for the identification of good, satisfactory and poor water quality. Water quality, for the purposes of KWW, applies mainly to Phosphate and Nitrogen concentration, coliform presence, pH, alkalinity, water clarity, and turbidity, as sampled by volunteers of the program. KWW is a program that relies almost entirely on the watershed community to monitor the water quality of our lakes and rivers. Volunteers sample water from their respective water bodies on a monthly basis, sending the results to Kawartha Conservation where they are organized, analyzed, and reported on.

Temporal coverage: 2020-07-21/2023-08-16

The Kingston Monitoring Hub continues Lake Ontario Waterkeeper’s work in Kingston by helping people access the Kingston waterfront with up to date water quality data.

Kingston, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington Public Health (KFL&A Public Health) monitors 7 beaches in the City of Kingston. The rest of the shoreline is not monitored, but many people use these waters to swim, boat, paddle, surf, and fish.

Kingston Monitoring Hub began collecting water samples and testing for E. coli in 2020. E. coli is an indicator for sewage—the more E. coli present in a sample, the greater the risk to public health and the environment.

Staff along with a group of trained citizen scientists sample the water every Wednesday during the summer months. We sample three main locations: Hospital Beach, Olympic Harbour Beach, and Doug Fluhrer Park. We have added these locations to Swim Guide, and we update them weekly.

Temporal coverage: 2018-06-28/2023-05-01

LakeKeepers aims to address the gaps in lake water quality data that exist in many parts of Alberta. Current monitoring strategies restrict much of the Provincial data to lakes within easy driving distance from Edmonton or Calgary – however, many of Alberta’s invaluable water resources exist outside of this range and as a result have little water quality data. Current monitoring strategies for the ice-on period through the winter months are also limited. Citizen scientists collect information such as water clarity, chlorophyll-a, total Kjeldahl Nitrogen, total Phosphorus, microcystin concentrations, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, and some other water quality parameters. Information is also collected through the year, with monitoring occurring in both the summer and winter months. While the focus of the summer sampling is to gather baseline water quality information, the winter sampling is focused towards collecting parameters that best represent fish habitat quality, since ice anglers are the primary citizen scientists in the winter months.
