I research the roles that snow and glacier ice play in modifying the timing and magnitude of water availability for supporting critical downstream uses such as municipal water supply, salmon habitat, agriculture, and hydropower, particularly in the context of climate change and extreme events like heatwaves. As mountain regions stand to lose a majority of their glacier ice over the coming decades, my work underscores a fundamental truth about life in Western Canada: ice matters.
