On-campus safari

We had a great time at the annual conference of the Canadian Water Resources Association this week! Now, the trip back home just became "Ralph and Marie-Amélie explore Canada from coast to coast" because of a flight delay, but eventually we'll be back in Sherbrooke 🤞

Les attaques du gouvernment des États-Unis contre les universités sont révoltantes. Par contre, au Canada on peine déjà à subventionner la recherche universitaire et les chercheurs actuellement en poste! S'il y a de l'argent à investir, c'est ce qui devrait être prioritaire à mon avis.

No. Would never have thought of including that in my CV! I'm surprised it's a thing.

I don't have the right surname but I strongly support this project.

Marie-Amélie Boucher 🇨🇦 @queen-mab-hydro.bsky.social · Mar 25

I have to find a nice spot for this. It belongs to the team of students, but they don't have a permanent place to put it. 😊 Thank you #icireward #water4future

I'm so thrilled that our team of #Usherbrooke MSc students won the #Water4Future Hackathon this year! 😍 It was their first participation and they were amazing! I'm super proud of them! 🔥🥇

From now on I've officially done more splitboarding in 2025 than in 2024 (1>0)

I'm adding this to my top favorite art installations of all time. Absolutely fantastic! (at Kunsthaus Zurich)

We had a fruitful meeting of the #wmo Standing Committee on Hydrological Services (SC-HYD) this week in Divonne les bains. More info on SC-HYD here: bit.ly/3VtIG9g Now, off to Zurich!

My favorite local independent café announced today that they will be closing for good on Dec 15. Very sad! A truly unique place.

Some snow in Sherbrooke at last! ❄️ I hope this winter will be more "wintery" than the previous one.

Yes!! It seems to me like "digital twin" has become one of the fashionable buzzwords to use these days... I haven't read your paper yet but I will!

The term digital twins of the Earth is misleading. We joined the discussion with our new paper
sesmo.org/article/view...

We argue that we 1) should not call them twins as they remain models that are distinct from reality and 2) that we need better methods to rigorously investigate complex models.

I'm so glad you're here! In my opinion you kind of are a super hero.
