Biometricians consult with research scientists and other Ministry staff on the proper application of statistical methods, standards, and computer programs to meet research and operational needs. They also provide leadership by developing quantitative aspects of policy decisions.
Biometrics has provided critical support to Ministry priorities such as the Forest and Range Evaluation Program (FREP), Forest Stewardship Planning, and timber supply review. They provide continuous technical support to researchers and Ministry staff in many priority areas, including ranking habitat for species at risk, modelling future climate change scenarios, and studying the economics of beetle-killed forests.
