Dr. Micheline Manseau is Wildlife Ecologist with the National Office of Parks Canada and Associate Professor at the Natural Resources Institute, University of Manitoba. Her primary research focuses on the development of non-invasive methods for the study and monitoring of wildlife populations, on the development of new analytical methods to identify animal population structure and ecological attributes of critical habitat and movement corridors, and on cross-cultural approaches in the management of wildlife species and protected areas. Dr. Manseau works in different regions of Canada and her projects relate to the impact of environmental changes, land use activities and emerging policies. She closely works with the different levels of government, aboriginal organizations and communities and the private sector.

Blair Kennedy is a remote sensing scientist working with the Landscape Sciences and Technology division of Environment and Climate Change Canada in Ottawa. His current research focuses on characterizing the spatial and temporal changes occurring in northern ecosystems using a variety of field and remote sensing-based methodologies. Blair has a Ph.D. in Geography from Carleton University, where he investigated the retrieval of biophysical and biochemical properties of Arctic vegetation from imaging spectroscopy using machine learning and physical modeling techniques. Blair is contributing his remote sensing expertise to the Nı́o Nę P'ęnę́ project, specifically towards investigating the vegetation related changes occurring in the high-elevation ecosystems of the Mackenzie Mountains and how these changes are impacting the summer ranges of northern mountain caribou.
