His research explores hydrological connectivity and energy and contaminant cycling in fish food webs of large rivers, with experience in northern Australia and eastern and western Canada. He currently works with communities in inland river deltas to understand environmental and Indigenous flow needs, as part of interdisciplinary teams that include policy scientists, biologists, and engineers. His recent research is contributing information to a re-licensing process, the first to occur in the province of Saskatchewan, for a large hydro-power dam (E.B. Campbell Dam) that has altered downstream flow patterns to the Saskatchewan River Delta, North America’s largest inland delta.
