“…In addition, it is predicted to shift differentially under various climate scenarios and models (Jyrkama and Sykes, 2007;Levison et al, 2014). In Canada, highly variable recharge rates have been proposed in previous studies, for example, for the 2050 horizon (mainly the period 2041-2070) relative to modern (2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013)(2014)(2015) or past recharge rates , depending on study site, scenario, and model: +10 to +53 % in the Grand River watershed, Ontario (Jyrkama and Sykes, 2007), −41 to +15 % in the Chateauguay River watershed, Quebec (Croteau et al, 2010), −6 to +58 % in the Otter Brook watershed, New Brunswick (Kurylyk and MacQuarrie, 2013), −4 to +15 % at Covey Hill, Quebec (Levison et al, 2014), +14 to +45 % in the Annapolis Valley, Nova Scotia (Rivard et al, 2014), and −28 to +18 % for the Magdalen Islands, Quebec (Lemieux et al, 2015).…”
