Our research focuses on advancing our understanding of watershed hydrological and biogeochemical functioning across a variety of landscapes and spatial scales. In particular, we explore the cumulative impacts of climate and land use change on the transport of water and non-point source contaminants from terrestrial to aquatic systems. We use a combination field-, laboratory-, and geospatial-based approaches to link landscape patterns, hydrological processes and in-stream water quality dynamics in small- and meso-scale watersheds.

We would like to acknowledge that we conduct our research in the traditional territories of the Anishinaabe, Haudenosaunee and Wendat peoples.  Claire Oswald’s research group is located at Ryerson University and we especially acknowledge our treaty partners, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.  We conduct our field-based research over a broader area and would also like to acknowledge the Williams Treaties First Nations.  We are committed to sharing any knowledge we develop about these lands and waters with interested Indigenous communities. We also recognize and welcome Indigenous knowledge and perspectives related to our research.

Claire Oswald's research group is committed to the principles of equity, diversity and inclusion. We welcome people of any ethnicity, ability, gender and sexual orientation to reach out to us about our research.
