Integrated Hydrologic Modelling for Agriculture & Forestry
Aquanty operates real-time and on-demand hydrologic forecasting platforms to help a wide variety of stakeholders understand and predict current and future water resources. Our user-friendly technology is enhancing landscape management, drought and flood risk assessment, and understanding of climate change impacts across economically crucial areas of Canada. From national-scale hydroclimatological analysis to field-scale soil moisture and chemical leaching prediction, HydroGeoSphere simulation technology is a valuable tool for government agencies, agricultural stakeholder, and watershed managers to understand and manage water resources.

Special Projects
Aquanty helps agricultural stakeholders understand and predict water needs, optimize usage and adapt to climate change. From national-scale analysis to field-specific predictions- our solutions are designed to improve efficiency, mitigate risks and support sustainable practices.
Real-Time Hydrologic Decision Support for the South Nation Conservation Authority
“ HydroGeoSphere is one of our main tools to protecting people and property. It provides a comprehensive view of our watershed status, with real time data, which is critical to forecasting potential flood areas that could result from upcoming weather events.”
— Sandra Mancini, Managing Director, SNCA
How a High-Tech Water Model is Future-Proofing Manitoba’s Farms, Soils and Grasslands.
“The MFGA Aquanty Forecasting Tool puts water management decision support mechanisms into the hands of farmers and land managers in real time. Water is our most valuable resource and the backbone of agriculture. With the MFGA Aquanty Forecasting Tool we can plan more effectively around our incredibly valuable water resources.”
— Duncan Morrison, Executive Director, MFGA
Development of a fully integrated hydrological fate and transport model for plant protection products: incorporating groundwater, tile drainage, and runoff
This research investigates how the integrated hydrological modelling of plant protection products (PPPs) such as pesticides can provide a more comprehensive understanding of their environmental behavior across groundwater, surface water, and tile drainage systems.
Simulating seasonal variations of tile drainage discharge in an agricultural catchment
A coupled surface-subsurface HydroGeoSphere model was constructed for a small (<10sqkm) agricultural catchment in Denmark in order to evaluate seasonal patterns in tile drainage discharge over a 2-year simulation period to better understand properties/processes dominating runoff from agricultural fields.
Dual permeability modeling of tile drain management influences on hydrology and nutrient transport in macroporous soil
This study demonstrated a dual permeability model was able to reproduce the influence of tile drain management practices on tile discharge, and nutrient transport, following a liquid swine manure application on a macroporous clay loam soil. Additionally, it was found that macropores were responsible for transmitting >95% of the solute load to tile discharge.
