Biography

Koreen Millard is an Associate Professor in the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies at Carleton University, focusing on the intersections of geomatics, physical geography, and big data science. Her research primarily addresses ecosystem monitoring and the extraction of biophysical parameters from remotely sensed imagery. Millard critically assesses the biases and uncertainties that affect the use of such tools across a variety of landscapes. Her work couples remote sensing with extensive field monitoring to elucidate the hydrological and vegetative interactions with climate, particularly in northern ecosystems. She investigates the impacts of peatland wildfires and employs time-series analysis techniques using SAR and multispectral imagery to understand the conditions that lead to peatlands burning.
