Research
Aquatic resources play a huge role in ensuring the food security of northern people. Predicting and managing the impacts of rapidly changing northern environments on these resources is therefore crucial. We use an integrative approach combining population genomics and acoustic telemetry to characterize the interplay between migration, dispersal, and gene flow. We aim to understand how these processes will influence the capacity of populations to adapt to a changing Arctic. Much of our work focuses on anadromous salmonids, particularly Arctic Char.
