Evelise Bourlon, PhD

Evelise has been a member of the FluxLab since 2017, where she is the resident expert on methane emission modelling. She completed her undergrad in Structure and Matter Sciences, Physics and Marine Geosciences in France, and completed her PhD in Solid-Earth Geophysics in Montreal at UQAM. Her past experiences encompass various aspects of solid-earth geophysics, paleoclimate, and greenhouse gases in the surface environment. Evelise’s work with the lab focuses on large-scale emission measurement problems using various remote sensing techniques (i.e. truck, airborne, or satellite devices) on a wide range of scales. Currently, much of her time is spent developing and optimizing code to quantify methane emissions from oil and gas production and landfill operations across the country, using data collected with our mobile surveying vehicles. Evelise serves as a valuable resource for undergraduate and graduate students in the lab on their coding and data analysis projects. Outside of the lab, she can be found spending time with her daughter and enjoying the great outdoors through hiking and running.
