Research Interests
My research areas span Quantitative Conservation Ecology and
Ecological Risk Assessment. I apply population models, treatments of
uncertainty and decision-making techniques to address conservation and
wildlife management issues. My research activities are broad and
include: population viability analysis of endangered and threatened
plants using individual-based models; treatment of uncertainty in
contaminant exposure models for wildlife; systematic decision making
for conservation planning; assessment of uncertainty in endangered
species classification protocols.
Upper division and Graduate courses:
