Dr. Bergeron is an internationally renowned forest ecologist, with an extensive understanding of terrestrial processes, particularly in northern landscapes. He also has experience in industrial/academic interactions and in the dissemination and application of results within the context of these partnerships.
Dr. Laprise is an internationally recognized specialist in modeling of regional climate and climate change.
Dr. Pace is one of the leading aquatic ecologists in the world, with extensive experience in both large-scale experimental studies and modeling. His research focuses on freshwater and estuarine ecosystems, studying the interactions between aquatic organisms and the trophic and biogeochemical processes they mediate. Dr. Pace's approach favours large-scale manipulation experiments, natural experiments, and comparative ecosystem analyses. His current research projects and the interests of the colleagues in his lab group are described on his web page under the Research and People tabs.
Dr. Tranvik is one of the leading international scientists in aquatic biogeochemistry and is a specialist in boreal aquatic ecosystems.
Dr. Tremblay has carried out extensive research in aquatic greenhouse gas dynamics particularly in northern reservoirs and has been at the forefront of industrial/academic collaboration on studies of the impacts of hydro-electric reservoirs. His insight will help place our research in the context of current industrial information needs.
