Summer
Congratulations to Christine Creyke (MA NRES student) who recently received the J. Michael Waldram Memorial Model Forest Fellowship for 2009 from the Canadian Institute of Forestry.

Congratulations to incoming PhD student Kelly Giesbrecht (MA NRES-Geog, UNBC '04) on the recent publication of her MA thesis, "
Community Control in Resource Management: The Bulkley Valley Community Resources Board
.' The new book is available through Amazon.com. Abstract:"Traditional public participation in resource management planning and decision making processes in British Columbia has often resulted in little or no public influence in the process, or over the decisions made. This study of the Bulkley Valley Community Resources Board (BVCRB) explores how public input through this body was conceptualized and incorporated into the Bulkley Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP) process. This work explores the linkages between public participation, community conflict, community organization and community power. Community support and community representation are central to the BVCRB's influence in the development of the Bulkley LRMP. The goal of this work is to examine how a level of public input which went beyond tokenism was achieved and resulted in community control and community power. This provides insight into the legitimacy of community organization, community representation, and community support for public participation to influence resource management planning and decision making."

Congratulations to PhD NRES student Matt Beedle (and his supervisor Brian Menounos) for the feature of their research in the June/July issue of Northword magazine. Here is the opening of the article:
"Last summer, student Matt Beedle stuck a pole in a glacier. The research technique may not sound like cutting-edge science, but the result was unequivocal: Nearly a month later, the pole, which had only a few millimeters showing when he planted it, was exposed nearly to his 5’11” height. Was he surprised at the results? “Ah, no,” admits the UNBC doctoral student. "
