2018 Roger JE Brown Award – Ed Hoeve

CGS E-News is pleased to feature the CGS 2018 Awardees. In this issue Ed Hoeve is featured, winner of the 2018 Roger JE Brown Award of the CGS Cold Regions Geotechnology Division. Established in 1986, the award honours Roger JE Brown (1931-1980), a renowned Canadian physical geographer and researcher in the field of permafrost, and recognizes outstanding contributions to permafrost science or engineering.

Ed Hoeve’s citation reads: “With over 30 years’ experience as a valued geotechnical consultant throughout both the Northwest and Nunavut territories, Ed Hoeve has developed specialized expertise studying permafrost engineering throughout Canada’s north.

Born and raised in Ontario, he received a BASc in Civil Engineering from the University of Waterloo, before migrating west for his Masters in Geotechnical Engineering from the University of Alberta. From Edmonton, his career path took him north to Yellowknife where he founded HoevEng Consulting.

Over the years, Ed has authored or co-authored many technical publications related to permafrost engineering and has taken a keen interest in assessing the impacts of climate change on permafrost degradation in the Northwest Territories. As a long-time resident of Yellowknife, he has also mentored many geotechnical engineers and geoscientists working in the arctic.

He continues to work with the permafrost engineering community, serving as past chair and current member of the executive for the CGS Cold Regions Geotechnology Division, as well as on the executive of the Canadian National Committee of the International Permafrost Association.

And now, CGS is pleased to award its first Northwest Territories recipient, Ed Hoeve, with the 2018 Roger JE Brown Award.”
