His research focuses on landscape disturbance impacts on stream aquatic communities, particularly brook char and coldwater fish habitats in boreal ecosystems. He holds a HBSc and MSc from the University of Western Ontario and a PhD from the University of Guelph.
His research explores timber harvest, forest fire effects, and spatial scale influences on stream ecology. He collaborates on projects involving fish habitat use, genetic tracking of populations, and watershed hydrology. Recent work includes studies on soil rutting in black spruce ecosystems and microbial attachment mechanisms relevant to food safety.
Mackereth's publications span aquatic ecology, environmental microbiology, and geomorphology, reflecting his interdisciplinary approach. He maintains an active research profile through CNFER and contributes to sustainable resource management initiatives.
