"Prairie wetlands (commonly known as sloughs) are a major waterfowl habitat for North America and are also an important component of the water resources of the region. Water levels in these wetlands fluctuate over large ranges in response to climate variability and land use changes, subsequently affecting the quality and abundance of habitat. As part of a cooperative effort led by the Ecological Research Division at the Prairie and Northern Wildlife Research Centre and the Aquatic Ecology Impacts Branch National Water Research Institute, a multi-year project was designed to compile long-term data sets on wetland water levels, and bring these together with other relevant data including climate, land-use, drainage, stream-flow and waterfowl numbers. These data sets will be utilized in the development of hydrological and ecological models that will contribute to the management of wetlands in a sustainable manner"--Abstract.
