Help us welcome our summer student, Aliza!

July 10, 2015

IMG_20150710_1Hello everyone! I would like to introduce myself to the Nashwaak Watershed Association. I am Syeda Aliza Haider, a UNB student based in Fredericton. After being raised in different provinces of Pakistan like Sindh, Punjab and KPK, I moved to New Brunswick two years ago, and I now call it my home. I am a coffee lover, I play street cricket and I am passionate about river conservation.

After concentrating on science subjects during high school and my first year of university, my major focus was to pursue a career in biology but my heart was always with the environment. I realized this when I took an ecology course in my second year. Having spent 5-6 weeks in the Corbett Brook watershed, a stream that runs from the UNB woodlot into the St. John River, working with my fellow students, I became excited about applying my knowledge about biology to a practical environmental project. When I heard about the Nashwaak Watershed Association, I jumped at the chance to work with them.This is my first job in Canada and I am looking forward to lots of learning, meeting people in the watershed and helping with the Association’s projects like the nursery and the Greenway.

Mr. Woodcock's talented gr 12 FHS music class joined us at Marysville Flats this week! We talked climate change and floodplain restoration. We're excited to hear what they create from their Nashwaak River trip. Kudos to the NB Dept of Ed for supporting this awesome experience! https://t.co/6nGyCy7XBP

It’s almost time for river ice monitoring! Each year, we conduct river ice surveys along the Nashwaak River throughout the winter and spring as a part of GNB’s River Watch Program. The information collected in these ground-based surveys helps the province keep track of the state of our rivers and streams, and can actually be used to forecast potential floods. During the surveys, we record ice types and concentrations, snow and ice thickness, surface and shore conditions, and many other parameters. This information is especially important to collect during ice jams, as they can increase water levels upstream and result in flooding. Keep an eye out for us along the Nashwaak and check back for more ice monitoring updates over the coming months. #MyNashwaak #eauNBwater ... See MoreSee Less
