Global Water Futures Observatories (GWFO), a Canadian national research facility focused on freshwater security, was established in 2023 to provide continued access to the work produced by instrumented sites and laboratories supported by the nine year long Global Water Futures Program and the more recent Real-time Aquatic Ecosystem Observation Network. GWFO operates national-scale research infrastructure important for understanding, predicting, and managing water-related risk in the face of climate change and growing economic pressures.
