Kevin's research is focused on modelling Antarctic subglacial hydrology to better understand glacier dynamics. He has a background in mathematical physics from the University of Waterloo.
Dylan is a master's student in applied math at the University of Waterloo working on modeling subglacial hydrology and hopes to be a glaciologist one day. He has a BSc in computational mathematics as well as physics from Memorial University of Newfoundland's Grenfell Campus.
Siobhan is a geophysicist specializing in glaciology. She uses seismic and electromagnetic methods to infer properties of the firn, ice and subglacial environment. This can range from characterising near surface firn structure to investigating deep subglacial lakes. Here, she is using these techniques to investigate a subglacial lake under Devon ice cap in the Canadian Arctic as part of the SEARCHARCTIC collaboration.
Christine's research was focussed on the Drygalski Ice Tongue, East Antarctic using remote sensing and numerical modelling techniques to assess what allows the tongue to persist at a length of >90km into the Ross Sea.
Tim is developing a supraglacial hydrology model for mountain glaciers and ice sheets to better understand meltwater inputs to the subglacial drainage system. This supraglacial model will be coupled to an energy balance model to predict moulin hydrographs for glaciers in the St. Elias Mountains, Yukon. Tim has a background in mathematical physics with a focus on numerical modelling.
Eleanor is a glaciologist specializing in structure-from-motion for monitoring glacier melt and modelling of glacier mass change. She has worked extensively with UAV mapping in mountain environments and is interested in streamlining structure-from-motion workflows. Currently, she is working on integrating glacier melt and hydrology modelling with time lapse imagery to understand glacier surges in the St. Elias Mountains, Yukon Territory. In addition to her research, Eleanor serves as President of the Board for the Girls on Ice Canada Society, a Revelstoke-based non-profit whose aim is to give high school girls opportunities to explore field science in the mountains of Western Canada.
