Christine Rivard obtained her Ph.D. in hydrogeology in 2001 from the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) in Quebec City. She then joined the Geological Survey of Canada as a research scientist. Rivard further developed her expertise in hydrogeology through three regional characterization projects in eastern Canada. She has also investigated the potential role of climate change on aquifer recharge. More recently, she has started working on the potential impacts of shale gas development on groundwater, mainly investigating upward fluid migration. Rivard is also an adjunct professor at INRS and an associate editor of the Canadian Journal of Earth Sciences (CJES).
