Capsule Resume

Mark Tiley (B.Sc.) has been involved with aquatic research, management and fisheries conservation initiatives for 11 years. Much of Mark's work has contributed to the management and recovery efforts directed towards threatened and endangered fish populations in western North America. The research Mark has participated in includes the habitat use of juvenile coho salmon in relation to predation risk on Vancouver Island, BC, habitat use and life history of bull trout in southern Oregon, genetic characteristics of redband rainbow trout in southern Oregon, adult white sturgeon life history and habitat use in the Canadian Columbia River and the survival rate of post hatch and YOY white sturgeon subjected to the cold water temperature conditions of the regulated Canadian Columbia River.

In addition to his research experience, Mark has participated in stream and lake habitat assessments including seasonal macroinvertebrate and zooplankton monitoring, groundwater quality assessments, fish population assessments using multiple pass removal electrofishing and mark-recapture techniques, spawning surveys and riparian habitat assessments. Mark has regularly used ultrasonic telemetry and radio telemetry equipment to identify seasonal habitat uses and the timing of seasonal migrations. Mark has also served as a First Nations representative on Environmental Assessment and Water Use Planning technical committees.
