Climate Change as a driver of change in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin
Journal of Great Lakes Research
Our research examined trends in climate in the Great Lakes Basin over the past 50 years. Then we assembled multiple projected climatic trends looking 50 years into the future using multiple GCM and RCM models with several different emissions scenarios applied. 
We researched past, current and recommended emissions reduction and adaptation strategies and used scenario analysis to imagine three possible future scenarios: Status Quo, Utopian, and Distopian futures, each brought about by the implementation (or not) of various conservation, adaptation and mitigation strategies and how those would interact with other drivers of change within the basin. 
Recommendations to reach a Utopian future require immediate actions, including improvements in energy conservation, efficiency, and generation; curbs to emissions; preventative infrastructure upgrades and investments in maintaining and monitoring a healthy ecosystem.
I am the corresponding author for this paper.

Geospatial Evaluation of Range Roads on Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri
Association of Engineering Geologists Annual Meeting, 41st, Abstracts
I was the project leader on a contracted project to devise a means to evaluate the unsurfaced road network driver training facility at the US Army's Fort Leonard Wood. We created a geospatial map of the road network and recommended a maintenance plan to optimise limited resources.

NatureScape, a Turf Grass to California Native Plant Garden Transformation Program
Water used to maintain landscapes is the largest consumptive use in urban Southern California. Most landscapes are not designed to work with the local Mediterranean climate. Instead they are designed with large areas of turf grass and trees and shrubs which must rely heavily on supplemental irrigation to survive. For over a decade, there has been a push to remove turf grass and replace it with lower-water need plants or xeriscaping. Unfortunately, this led to a lot of barren rock gardens and artificial plastic turf being installed, which magnify the urban heat island effect in neighborhoods and does nothing for the local ecosystem. 

MNWD launched NatureScape to help customers find a better way to remove thirsty turf grass and provide multiple-benefit landscapes. The program provides a rebate incentive for removing grass and replacing it with locally adapted native plants that have evolved to not only survive the climate, but to actually thrive and look beautiful. Professional designs are customized to each home's needs and installed by a local native plant nursery. The gardens provide habitat for unique and threatened native species, use swales to capture stormwater runoff to reduce peak flows to local waterways and the ocean, and provide year-round colour that delights communities! 

The website features more information about the program, but we also developed a Virtual Garden Tour that educates the community about the garden benefits, and we filmed "NatureScapers, the Real Landscapes of Orange County", which is a video series that follows a young couple on their journey from tired, drought prone landscape to installing a beautiful California Native Garden!

Great Lakes Futures Project
Developed the climate change driver paper focused on the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin as part of the Great Lakes Futures Project. The project aims to determine past and potential future states of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin, with hopes to inform strategic policy formulation, frame research priorities, and help train the next generation of Great Lakes leaders. Publication pending with the Journal of Great Lakes Research.

The Great Lakes Futures Project is an inaugural project of the Transborder Research University Network (TRUN) for Water Stewardship – an international partnership of Canadian and U.S. research institutions.
