United States
- Directing the USDA Caribbean Climate Hub.
- Arctic Observing Network (AON): Study of arctic ecosystem changes.
- Furthering the science of remote sensing of biodiversity patterns.
- Documenting long–term response of arctic vegetation to recent climate change.
- Developing widely used landcover, biodiversity and conservation information for Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.
- Developing the Forest Service Research Map Publication Series (RMAP).
My research involves integrating field and remote sensing data to analyze landscape patterns and processes in a wide range of ecosystems including tropical, temperate, boreal and arctic biomes. I am active in studies of conservation science, biodiversity, ecology, land cover mapping, modeling future scenarios for conservation planning, and field education and outreach.
There are a lot of uncertainties in how natural and social systems will respond to changes in climate and land use. My research helps better understand the current matrix of habitats, species distributions, and human use and infrastructure that make up the landscape - and how these might respond to things like sea level rise, increasing drought or storm frequency, urban growth, and other changes.
