Biography
Integrating wildlife conservation into sustainable forest stewardship
In our rapidly changing world, the integration of wildlife conservation into sustainable
forest stewardship represents an important, yet daunting challenge. To identify those
species and communities in need of conservation action, I study the response of temperate
and tropical forest-dwelling wildlife to environmental change through experimentation
and long-term monitoring, and demographic modeling. In addition to applied wildlife
conservation and management, I study bird molt, an understudied yet critical phase
of the avian lifecycle. Specifically, I assess how selective pressures influenced
avian molt strategies in temperate and tropical systems.
