Hannah Green
GIS Analyst

   I work as a GIS Analyst for Teton Topo. Through my career, I have noticed a lack of accessibility when it comes to academic research. Mapping is a way of creating an accessible space to environmental research. Everyone can be impacted by a map; they tell a story, and connect us to a place through landscape visuals. I aim to use my knowledge of GIS to provide knowledge and solutions to the ever-increasing list of environmental problems we face today.

   I hold an undergraduate degree in Environment and Natural Resources from the University of New Brunswick, where I built my knowledge of watershed management, climate change, and GIS applications in forestry. I am currently completing my Masters of Environmental Management at the University of New Brunswick, where I am focusing on using geographic information systems to predict water temperatures at thermal refuges. Thermal refuges are utilized by many aquatic species in the warm summer months, including the culturally significant Atlantic salmon. In the face of climate change, protecting cold-water habitats is critical to the survival of Atlantic salmon for generations to come. The prediction models aim to explain how landscape variables, such as forest cover, bedrock and anthropogenic influence, inform refuge thermal quality. The goal is to provide data to argue for provincial protection of these refuges from anthropogenic effects, and to enhance their quality through proper management practices informed by local Indigenous communities.
