John Iacozza is a Senior Instructor in the Department of Environment and Geography at the University of Manitoba's Clayton H. Riddell Faculty of Environment, Earth, and Resources. His academic background includes a Doctorate in Geography from University of Manitoba (2011), a Master's in Geography from University of Manitoba (1997), and a BSc (Honours) in Geography from McMaster University.
Dr. Iacozza's research focuses on the intersection of geomatics, environmental geography, and biology to study Arctic marine mammals. Key interests include:
- Habitat variables for ringed seals, polar bears, and whales
- Remote sensing applications for whale identification from space
- Spatiotemporal analysis of oceanographic/atmospheric variables
- Climate change impacts on Arctic ecosystems
His publications demonstrate consistent focus on cryosphere-atmosphere-ocean interactions, with recent work emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches to climate change impacts on Arctic marine species. Research themes show progression from population ecology to advanced remote sensing applications.
Dr. Iacozza teaches courses including Introduction to Physical Geography, Arctic System Science, Remote Sensing, Climate Change, and Quantitative Research Methods, reflecting his interdisciplinary expertise.
