Isabel Hilgendag
As a Northern Research Coordinator, Isabel Hilgendag manages Wilfrid Laurier University's research facilities in Yellowknife, NT, and helps a diverse range of research teams. She has an MSc degree in Biology from the University of Waterloo and a BSc degree in Environmental Science from Laurentian University.

Lynda York
Dr Lynda Yorke (she/her) is a Senior Lecturer in Physical Geography, and Degree Programme Director at Bangor University, Wales. She is a Quaternary geomorphologist, with a principal emphasis in fluvial and pro-glacial sequences and histories. Her interdisciplinary research includes the intersection of climate change, cultural heritage, and coastal communities. Lynda is a key voice in the geographies of education, an advocate of inclusion and accessibility in geosciences particularly fieldwork, and the use of virtual technologies to enhance learning.

Aude Vincent
Hydrogeologist and author, my research interests are anthropic impacts on water resources and water cycle in general. During my PhD I focused on anthropised coastal aquifers, and between 2016 and 2023 on climate change impacts on water dynamics and resources in glacierised catchments, using both field data acquisition and numerical modelling. I am now a water protection officer in Sweden. I pursue a “side project” on the history of women in geology.
