As part of my volunteer work with the research committee of the Scugog Lake Stewards, I've been involved with the development of an outreach video series on a range of topics dedicated to understanding Lake Scugog. Check the videos out on this separate page.
The photo gallery below includes a few interesting pictures collected in field locations over the last 12 years!

One of my recent interests is in science video production, for outreach and teaching.

Check back regularly for new content related to projects I'm involved with, and teaching videos related to a range of physical geography topics.

"The thing the ecologically illiterate don’t realize about an ecosystem is that it’s a system. A system!
A system maintains a certain fluid stability that can be destroyed by a misstep in just one niche.
A system has order, a flowing from point to point. If something dams the flow, order collapses.
The untrained might miss that collapse until it was too late.
That’s why the highest function of ecology is the understanding of consequences.”
