Happy Halloween! 🎃👻 This year, we celebrated Halloween with our second annual pumpkin painting event. Undergraduate and graduate students joined us for this spooky celebration!

Our research equipment for lake ice monitoring is all set up and the MacDonald Lake weather station serviced (and finally back online to send data to us!). Thanks Haliburton Forest for working with us on our lake ice projects! UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment U of T Mississauga Now we just need some lake ice ❄️🧊

I found almost all of our UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment affiliated MSc graduates today! Big congratulations to everyone 🎉👏🏻👏🏻👩‍🎓Department of Geography and Planning U of T Mississauga

Lisa Marno is representing the lab group at #AGU2024 and presenting her work on changing snow in the High Arctic! If anyone would like to learn more, drop by poster #410 and see where snowfall is changing and by how much ❄️❄️❄️ UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment Department of Geography and Planning AGU (American Geophysical Union)

Climate change is making Canada's ice roads increasingly unpredictable, threatening public safety, infrastructure and the economy. Canada Research Chair Homa Kheyrollah Pour shares her collaborative research and recommendations in The Conversation Canada: theconversation.com/climate-change…

Thanks Dr. Homa Kheyrollah Pour! A great conference all around!

Excellent presentations by ReSEC Lab members at ArcticNet! Fantastic to see our latest research on lake ice and climate change impacts in (sub)Arctic ecosystems being shared with researchers and local communities. Congrats to the team on their valuable contributions! #ReSECLab

Cold is singing!

Some fun photos from the 2024 field season at Scotty Creek: scottycreek.com/trip/detail?id…

We’re back in action! The Ontario field team started the winter ice and snow measurements yesterday, hoping for a nice long winter season this year! ❄️❄️ UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment U of T Mississauga Department of Geography and Planning

A wonderful keynote from Dr. John Smol at the #CRRC2025 Conference, where he explores how Arctic lakes and ponds have reached critical ecological thresholds due to climate warming. A very compelling paleoenvironmental assessment of the profound changes unfolding over time!🌍❄️

With 40+ students registered, the #CRRC2025 fieldwork workshop got students thinking ahead about how to be ready for their field season! 🏕️🧭 Covering often-overlooked essentials—knots, ratchet straps, GPS use, survival gear, and logistics—it was a great refresher for field prep!

Networking + games + pizza = the perfect social event at #CRRC2025! 🎮🍕 Great conversations were had and high scores were tried at the arcade bar! A fun way to connect and unwind. 🙌 #NetworkingMadeFun

Fantastic start to the session with Caroline Duncan discussing water quality from source to tap in Cambridge Bay, Mathew Mervyn on beaver impacts on tundra streams, and Nick Luymes examined muskox habitat selection below treeline! 💧🦫🐂 #ColdRegionsResearch #CRRC2025

Big congrats to MSc student Lisa Marno UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment Department of Geography and Planning for a great job with her presentation at #CRRC2025 showing changing snow conditions in the Canadian High Arctic

Crowded poster session at #CRRC2025! Great turn out to check out what Ernest Groh is up to for his honours thesis project exploring white ice formation on High Arctic Lakes 🧊🧊❄️ UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment

Great energy at the #CRRC2025 poster session with 15 incredible presentations! 🔬❄️ From Arctic ice and hydrology to wildlife, climate change, and ecosystem restoration, students shared fascinating research. Lots of great discussions and engagement! 👏 #ScienceInAction

Sloppy slush this year out on our research lakes means walking to the main site rather than driving, but the group managed to get some measurements anyway! A shout out to the trusty snow tube borrowed from Robin Thorne several years ago :D UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment ❄️❄️

Nothing quite like measuring snow in a snowstorm 😆 but we got the job done! ❄️

Windy day on the lake today for the Haliburton research today! UTM Geography, Geomatics and Environment Department of Geography and Planning
