Hydrology: Committees
The CGU-HS has several sub-committees on topics of interest to HS members. These committees work to advance scientific knowledge and application of research in their field, and often arrange special sessions at CGU meetings. For more information, contact the Chair of the committee, or see the committee reports on the Publications page.
Committee on Permafrost-Hydrogeology Interactions
Objectives:
Chairs: Chris Spence (Environment and Climate Change Canada) and Peter Morse (Natural Resources Canada)
Committee on River Ice Processes and the Environment (CRIPE)
