Habitat & Biodiversity

Environmental Assessments & Regulatory Approvals

Evaluating and Monitoring Natural Systems

We assess and monitor vegetation, wildlife, and habitats to support mitigation, restoration, and sustainable land-use decisions.

Ecological Risk Assessment

Evaluating Risks to Ecosystems

We assess ecological risks by analyzing exposure pathways, contaminant fate, and receptor sensitivity. Our work informs restoration, management, and regulatory decisions that support habitat function and species viability.

Vegetation

Monitoring Plant Communities

We assess vegetation structure and composition, conduct rare plant surveys, map habitat types, and monitor native and invasive species to support land management, reclamation, and biodiversity.

Approvals for Every Phase of Development

A Starting Point for Sustainable Development

Wildlife

Addressing Wildlife Concerns

We conduct wildlife surveys and assessments using field studies and descktop analysis to understand species occurrence, project impacts, and mitigation options.

Our work includes species at risk surveys, baseline inventories, nest searches and wildlife sweeps, effects and cumulative effects assessments, habitat suitability and modelling, mitigation and monitoring programs, conservation planning, and support for habitat reclamation and restoration.

Wetland Vegetation & Habitat

Understanding Wetland Biodiversity

We assess and survey wetlands to determine wetland classification, size, species composition, habitat quality, and ecological function—supporting regulatory submissions and informing mitigation, restoration, revegetation design, and conservation planning.

We also conduct long-term monitoring of wetlands for ecological function and impacts from existing operations.

Riparian Habitat (Ecological)

Assessing Sensitive Shorelines

We evaluate riparian vegetation, habitat function, and wildlife connectivity to support reclamation, restoration and impact mitigation of sensitive ecological areas.

Terrestrial Ecosystem Monitoring

Assessing Land-Based Ecosystems

We monitor vegetation, wildlife, soils, and habitat over time to track biodiversity trends, habitat condition, and ecological change—informing adaptive management and land-use planning.

Cumulative Effects (Terrestrial)

Understanding Long-Term Ecological Pressures

We evaluate cumulative effects on terrestrial ecosystems by integrating habitat, species, and landscape data to understand regional impacts and support sustainable planning.

Soils & Terrain

Science-based soil and terrain insights for responsible land use

MEMS delivers comprehensive soils and terrain assessments that support responsible land-use planning, environmental assessment, conservation, and reclamation efforts.

Our specialists combine field-based expertise with GIS-supported analysis to evaluate soil capability, terrain constraints, irrigation feasibility, mitigation strategies, and restoration potential across a wide range of project types and environmental settings.
