Research Interests/ Scholarship
My research investigates the extent, causes, and significance of long-term ecosystem change to guide future ecosystem management, integrating the fields of environmental history, landscape ecology, and historical ecology. Landscape ecological research quantitatively characterizes land-cover change relative to preEuroAmerican settlement baseline conditions. Related environmental history research examines how cultural, political, and economic factors (including land ownership) help explain change in forest ecosystems.
We employ diverse methods in this interdisciplinary, student-engaged research, including Geographic Information Systems (GIS), archival document analysis, and oral history interviews. Journals that have published our work include Landscape Ecology, Environmental History, American Indian Culture and Research Journal (AICJR), Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences (JESS), and Environmental Management.
