Hydrologist

Joseph is a hydrologist whose core areas of expertise include watershed hydrology, environmental flow needs, hydrometrics, and water temperature. He has contributed to a wide range of hydrology projects, throughout British Columbia, Yukon, and Ontario, including hydrologic modeling for mine water balance assessments, long-term hydrometric monitoring for run-of-river projects, environmental flow needs assessments for water licence applications, ramping assessments during flow withdrawals, and water temperature monitoring to evaluate fish and fish-habitat metrics. He has also led and supported field programs for baseline hydrology and water quality studies, instream flow assessments, hydrometric programs, and water temperature monitoring initiatives. Joseph holds a Master’s degree in Hydrology from McMaster University and is a Professional Geoscientist in British Columbia.
