Canadian Association on Water Quality (CAWQ)

The mission of the Canadian Association on Water Quality (CAWQ) is to create and foster a nationwide network of professionals dedicated to the development and communication of knowledge to preserve and enhance the water quality environment.

The Canadian Association on Water Quality is a non-governmental, non-profit organization for scientists, engineers, technologists, administrators, practitioners and students engaged in or interested in research on water quality or on the control or treatment of water pollution. The objectives of the CAWQ are to:

promote research on the scientific, technological, legal, economic, and policy aspects of water quality and of the control and treatment of water pollution,
further the exchange of information and practical application of such research for the public benefit, and
promote the goals and objectives of the International Water Association (IWA) in Canada.

Water Quality Research Journal of Canada

New - Preprint Publication: With Author permission, we post papers online that are ready for printing before the entire issue is ready for publication. These papers may or may not have page numbers added, can be found in our latest "Current Issue," and are accessible in full to all members of the CAWQ; the abstracts can be viewed by anyone. Once all manuscripts for an issue are complete, any missing page numbers will be added and the issue will be finalized. As soon as the first paper for the next issue is ready, a new "Current Issue" will be started.

Latest issue: Vol. 45, No. 1, 2010
