My research group works to determine the processes and impacts associated with climate and permafrost change in polar regions. We combine hydrological, geomorphological, remote sensing and modelling approaches to determine how different hydrological conditions lead to high soil pore water pressure and predict where these conditions will cause land instability and disturbance. Permafrost disturbance is a major hazard in northern Canada, and affects community and industry infrastructure. The research carried out my group is necessary to support planning and design that will to reduce the impact of permafrost disturbance on the land and water.

我的研究小组致力于确定与极地地区气候和永久冻土变化相关的过程和影响。我们结合水文、地貌、遥感和建模方法来确定不同的水文条件如何导致高土壤孔隙水压力，并预测这些条件将在何处导致土地不稳定和扰动。永久冻土扰动是加拿大北部的主要危害，影响社区和工业基础设施。我的小组进行的研究对于支持减少永久冻土扰动对土地和水的影响的规划和设计是必要的。
