I am a Master’s student working with Tamlin Pavelsky using remote sensing to study the hydrology of the Peace-Athabasca Delta in northern Alberta, Canada. More specifically, I am using satellite images to map suspended sediment concentrations in the delta throughout time as a way to determine patterns and changes in sediment delivery to the delta.
