Research Interests

Landscape ecology, avian ecology, conservation biology, ecological modeling

My research has mostly focused on the impacts of habitat loss and fragmentation on bird populations. I have explored these issues both through field investigations (studying bird community structure in naturally fragmented lodgepole pine forests in Grand Teton National Park) and through the use of spatially-structured avian demographic models. I am currently the on-site manager for Archbold’s office at Avon Park Air Force Range, where we monitor populations of the Federally endangered Red-cockaded Woodpecker and Florida Grasshopper Sparrow, and the threatened Florida Scrub-Jay.
