The work has been revealing the effects of climate change and the costs of counter\u002Dacting extremities like forest fires, floods and droughts.

It’s a northern hydrological model that serves as a means of advancing the study in cold regions.The same program, titled MESH, has also been used to predict the flow of water in the Great Lakes, the St. Lawrence River and the Saint John River basin, and as well as in the Fraser Valley in British Columbia.
