Michael Wagner

Michael's Bio

Michael Wagner is a Registered Professional Forester and the Provincial Coordinator for the Alberta Forestry and Parks Watercourse Crossing Program. He has focused much of his 20 year career on understanding watershed management issues in Alberta’s watersheds, particularly along the east slopes. His graduate degree in forest hydrology and professional experience has led to an in-depth understanding of wildland hydrology and how the impacts of human development (like roads and forest harvest) and natural disturbances (like wildfires) modify watershed response in terms of streamflow, water quality, and aquatic ecology. Presently, as the lead of the watercourse crossing program his focus is on managing the complexities surrounding “big data” and the identification and remediation of watercourse crossings found to be fragmenting fish habitats.
