I’m proud to announce a new publication in the journal of PLOS One  entitled ” Perceptions of climate change across the Canadian forest sector: the key factors of institutional and geographical environment”  [Paper]

Ph.D Completed! 

I am extremely happy to announce that I have successfully defended my Ph.D on July 20, 2017 at UQAM.  

Post Doctoral Research

I would also like to announce that I have begun working in the Landhäusser Research Group at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada . If you are curious to know what I’ll be working on click on Post-Doctoral Content Tab or Click HERE. 

I will be presenting my thesis on November 24th at 13h00 at UQAM in room SB-R830.

The seminar is entitled:

“Limited Migration: Will Sugar Maple Tap Out to Climate Change?”

I will be presenting my three thesis projects, results, and discuss what my research all means! 

Hope to see you all there! 

I will be presenting my second chapter of my phd thesis ” Local adaptation of trees at the range margins slows range shifts in the face of climate change” at the University of Vermont, in Burlington. The presentation is scheduled for the afternoon on September 30th, 2016.

I will be presenting at the 102nd Ecological Society of America Conference in Fort Lauderdale, Florida this August 10th (10:10am). 

My talk will focus on the second chapter of my doctoral research:

““Local adaptation of trees at the range margins slows range shifts in the face of climate change”

COS 39: Climate Change: Plants II
Date: Wednesday, August 10, 2016
Session Time: 8:00 AM – 11:30 AM

I will be giving a presentation at the upcoming CEF (Centre for Forest Research) Conference on May 2nd at 15h40 on the second chapter of my doctoral studies (Transplant Study)

Title of the talk:

“Local adaptation of trees at the range margins slows range shifts in the face of climate change”

The first chapter of my doctoral research (Stratification Study) has been accepted to publication to the Cambridge Journal – Seed Science Research!

Paper

I will be presenting in french at the TRIADE conference on February 18th in La Tuque, Québec.

The presentation is entitled:

The invasion of the boreal forest by sugar maple as a result of climate change: myth or reality?

 “L’envahissement de la forêt boréale par l’érable à sucre suite au changement climatique: mythe ou réalité?”

I will be presenting a one hour seminar at Dawson College February 25th at 10h00am.

The talk is part of the Dawson College Environmental Science Seminar Series

I will be giving a talk entitled:

“Climate Change and Our Forests: A Canadian Perspective”

Talk Summary: 

Climate change is expected to increase mean annual temperature in our region 2-7°C by the end of this century. While for many of us this sounds like the opportunity to take advantage of more days at the beach, such a rapid change could cause significant damage to the forest ecosystem and its many important processes. In this talk, I will discuss some of the impacts and potential challenges we are currently faced with when ensuring the health of our forests. Finally, I will also discuss some of the research I am currently conducting in a means of evaluating the impacts of such changes on Sugar Maple, an important species in our region.
