Research interests
Salmon ecology, landscape ecology, and
the role of disturbance on stream ecosystems
Current Research Projects
Understanding relationships among salmon,
their freshwater habitats, and landscape characteristics at
multiple spatial scales; developing and evaluating landscape-level
tools to help prioritize streams/watersheds for conservation
or restoration; modeling effects of natural and anthropogenic
disturbance on salmon and freshwater habitat.
