Isaac-Renton, Miriam

To guide reforestation, Miriam’s research discovers and models the adaptive capacity of keystone tree species in Canada’s forests. This research quantifies climate change impacts on forests and tree populations using a variety of tools – from quantitative genetics analyses to species distribution modelling, genomics and tree-ring science. As a Researcher in Quantitative Forest Genetics with the Canadian Forest Service, she works with partners at UBC Forestry and BC Ministry of Forests.
