Éducation

  • Doctorat en sciences de la terre et de l'atmosphère, Université de l'Alberta (2006)
  • MSc Sciences de la Terre et de l'atmosphère, Université de l'Alberta (2004)
  • BSc. Sciences de la terre et de l'atmosphère/Anthropologie, Université de l'Alberta


Recherche

Mes recherches contribuent à l'avancement des applications de la télédétection dans les sciences de l'environnement et de la télédétection médico-légale - une discipline dont je suis le pionnier. J'ai été le premier à utiliser l'imagerie hyperspectrale pour la détection des tombes clandestines et j'ai coécrit la première publication évaluée par des pairs sur ce sujet, référencée dans un rapport intérimaire d'un rapporteur spécial de l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies. Bien que mes recherches fassent largement appel à la télédétection hyperspectrale aéroportée à partir d'aéronefs pilotés, j'utilise également de petits véhicules aériens sans pilote (UAV) pour des études détaillées des écosystèmes ; mon laboratoire est un leader mondial en matière d'imagerie hyperspectrale par UAV. Dans le cadre du projet Fish + Forest, j'étudie les habitats aquatiques de l'ichtyofaune endémique et menacée, en produisant les premières reconstructions aériennes et sous-marines en 3D de paysages fluviaux au Brésil. Mes recherches portent également sur les changements d'utilisation des terres à grande échelle pour la conservation de la biodiversité à partir d'images satellitaires et contribuent à la validation des produits de données satellitaires (Landsat 8 OLI et Sentinel-2) pour les tourbières canadiennes. J'ai été la première femme canadienne à diriger une mission hyperspectrale aéroportée au Costa Rica en 2013 pour l'estimation du stock de carbone forestier et de la biodiversité. Mes recherches interdisciplinaires sont menées au Canada, au Brésil, en Tanzanie, au Ghana, en Amazonie péruvienne, au Panama, à Madagascar et au Costa Rica. Mes travaux les plus récents utilisent l'imagerie hyperspectrale aéroportée pour estimer la biodiversité et le fonctionnement des écosystèmes ; un aspect fondamental de l'Observatoire canadien de la biodiversité aéroportée (OCBA).
