| Background
& Research I obtained by Bachelor degree from the McGill School of Environment (major Land Surfaces Processes and Environmental Changes) and I spent the last year of my undergraduate degree at Aberystwtyh University, Wales, UK, studying at the Centre for Glaciology. Prior to starting my master studies I have been working as a field assistant for the PERG (Peatland Ecology Research Group), Laval University and as a research assistant for McGill university. My general interests are related to energy, land use change, environmental impact assessment and sustainable development, but more specifically, I am interested in the biosphere-atmosphere interactions. My current research is an assessment of the emissions of CO2 coming from a forest recently impounded for hydroelectric purposes, in Northern Quebec, James Bay. In order to achieve this study I am using micrometeorological techniques (eddy covariance flux tower). I have been involved in this research project since 2006 with the Atmospheric and Environmental Research (AER) lab and Hydro-Quebec. The overarching research question addressed by the entire project is: “What is the net carbon exchange that results from the creation of a hydroelectric reservoir within the northern boreal forest region?” Within this project, this research aims to answer the following question: “What is the magnitude and direction of carbon exchange that result from a boreal forest being flooded for hydroelectric purposes?” Winter Academic Semester
