Project

Monitoring ecosystem services and biodiversity across Canadian landscapes
As part of the ResNet research project, my work focuses on developing a methodology to monitor ecosystem service and biodiversity change through time and space as they react to society's needs and impacts. This methodology must be useful for all stakeholders and landscapes and help guide policy making across the whole country.
