President
Brielle Andersen I'm a second year master's student under Drs Ben Rostron and Duane Froese studying hydrogeology in Central Alberta. I will mainly use geophysical techniques to delineate aquifer extent. banderse@ualberta.ca |
Vice President
Nicklas Baran I'm a second-year Master's student in Urban and Reginal Planning working under the supervision of Dr. Jeff Birchall in the climate Adaption and Resilience Lab. My research looks at implementation of the ecosystem services concept into urban planning and development, green stormwater infrastructure, and local-scale climate adaption. I am thrilled to be your ATLAS VP this year. nbaran@ualberta.ca |
Treasurer/Symposium Coordinator Amanda Kotila I am a second year Master's student working with Dr. Chris Herd. My research focuses on organic contamination on the surface of meteorites and the implications this has for advanced curation methods. kotila@ualberta.ca |
Secretary
Kasia Staniszewska I am a PhD student whose research focus is understanding how thawing permafrost and melting glaciers contribute contaminants such as mercury to downstream environments. katarzyn@ualberta.ca |
ATLAS Talk Series Organizer
Kira Holland I am a PhD student working with Dr. Alison Criscitiello in the Canadian Ice Core Lab (CICL). My research uses the geochemistry of high-latitude glacier ice cores to understand ocean-atmosphere variability since the late Pleistocene. kmhollan@ualberta.ca |
ATLAS Talk Series Organizer
Scott Cocker Hi, I’m Scott, and I am a second year PhD student working with Dr Duane Froese. My research is focused on applying ancient DNA to understand the ecological history of the mammoth steppe in east Beringia (Yukon Territory and Alaska) prior to it's collapse ~13,000 years ago. I am particularly fond of arctic ground squirrels and their middens that have been preserved in the permafrost for up to 8000,000 years. This is my second year on the ATLAS committee as co-organizer of the ATLAS Talk Series. scocker@ualberta.ca |
Social Convener Molly Thomas I am a first year MSc Urban and Regional Planning student. My research interests include affordable housing, alternative housing models, and accessible design. mthomas1@ualberta.ca |
Social Convener
Roya Karimi-Boushehri I'm a first year masters student in Urban and Regional Planning, focusing on climate resilience and cultural ecosystem services. karimibo@ualberta.ca |
Webmaster/Calendar Coordinator
Eren Deniz Berberoglu I’m a first year MSc student working under the supervision of Dr. Elena Konstantinovskaya. My research interest is structural analysis and numerical tectonic modeling of the Scotia Basin, offshore Nova Scotia. berberog@ualberta.ca |
Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Coordinator/EAS Ambassador Avni Patel I’m a second year PhD student working with Dr. Sasha Wilson looking at characterising transformation pathways in Mg-Ca carbonates and noting the effects on transition metal mobility and isotopic fractionation during these non-classical mineral transformations. The work is relevant to carbon capture and utilisation and palaeonvironmental reconstruction. avni1@ualberta.ca |
Glacial and Quaternary Representative Alexandre Chiasson I am a PhD student working with Dr. Duane Froese studying Permafrost and ground ice distribution. My PhD aims to better understand the ground-ice conduitions along the proposed Mackenzie valley Highway (MVH) right-of-way in the central Mackenzie Valley, Northwest Territories, Canada. chiasso1@ualberta.ca |
Geology Representative Xueqi Liang I am a first year PhD student working on the marine environment and nitrogen cycle on the early Earth with Dr. Dong Li and Dr. Kurt Konhauser. I am the Geology Representative of the ATLAS this year. xueqi5@ualberta.ca |
