Mackenzie Myers

Mackenzie is a Masters student in the Department of Department of Earth, Environmental and Geographical Sciences.

Mackenzie was born and raised in Kelowna, BC. Having graduated with a BSc in Earth and Environmental Sciences at UBC Okanagan, he has returned for his MSc program. His research focuses on watershed hydrological processes. Supervised by Dr. Adam Wei and Dr. Jeff Curtis, Mackenzie is using isotopes and geochemistry to understand flow paths, residence time, and interactions between surface siwɬkʷ  (water) and groundwater in the sqʷʔa (Peachland Creek) watershed. An improved understanding of sqʷʔa watershed’s hydrological processes can support integrated watershed modelling and other water-related assessments.
