Fiona Johnston

Biography

Dr. Johnston explores interactions between water use through hydroelectric facilities and operations, and ecological and social values important to government, First Nations, and stakeholders. Her work follows many years of adaptive management experiments across nearly every BC Hydro facility in the province to determine how operations affect social and ecological outcomes. This is a long-term commitment and will yield important findings about the system as a whole, as well as help us understand how our use of natural resources impacts every aspect of the watershed.
