Rate My Professor Dominik Roeser

In the Forest Action Lab, Roeser's research frames innovation and development to promote sustainable forest management across diverse operational environments. Employing methods such as productivity studies, practical field trials, modeling, and evaluations of sustainability impacts, the lab addresses the needs of forestry stakeholders in British Columbia, Canada, and internationally. Core research areas include the sustainable utilization of forest biomass in the bioeconomy, harvesting in challenging terrain, application of innovative tools in forest planning and management, productivity enhancement in forest operations, carbon management throughout the forest supply chain, and the effects of reforestation on community sustainability. As Associate Dean, he strengthens connections between the faculty and research forests like Alex Fraser and Malcolm Knapp, provides strategic direction for projects on watershed management, assisted migration, carbon management, and silviculture, and builds partnerships with other universities, government agencies, and Indigenous communities. Roeser teaches courses in forestry and supports students through classroom instruction and field schools. He received the Recognition Award from the Canadian Forest Service in 2017.
