Tim is developing numerical models to apply to glaciers and ice sheets. He recently adapted a surface energy balance model and applied it to Kaskawulsh and Nàłùdäy (Lowell) Glaciers in the Yukon. Tim is now developing a supraglacial hydrology model for mountain glaciers and ice sheets to better understand meltwater inputs to the subglacial drainage system. This new model will simultaneously model flow through supraglacial streams and flow across the ice surface between channels, while allowing the stream network to dynamically evolve.

Tim completed his BSc at the University of Waterloo in Co-operative Mathematical Physics with a focus on numerical modelling and data analysis through co-op work terms.

Outside of research, Tim enjoys rock climbing, camping, hiking, and trail running. In the winter he’s probably on skis or thinking about skiing.
