Water Resources Research in Canada I: Funding Levels

Pages 56-67 | Published online: 23 Jan 2013
 

Abstract

The source and expenditure levels of research organizations active in water resources research are quantified. The trends in these efforts occurring over time are reviewed, providing insight into levels and directions of effort. Major findings include that there has been a decrease by 25 percent of funds allocated to water resources research between 1979 and 1983 and that the Federal Government agencies collectively constitute the main participant in water research both as a ‘doer’ and as a ‘facilitator’.

Les sources et les coûts des organismes de recherches consacrés à la recherche en ressources d’eau sont évalués. Les orientations de ces efforts qui se produisent au fil du temps sont réexaminés, clarifiant ainsi les niveaux et directions des perspectives de recherche. La majorité des résultats indique une baisse de 25% des fonds alloués à la recherche en ressources d’eau entre 1979 et 1983 et montre que les agences du Gouvernement Fédéral constituent à elles toutes ie participant majeur en recherche sur l’eau à la fois comme "acteur" et "facilitateur".
