My research interests have mainly centered around events that alter the ecological status quo — forest harvest, roads, climate change, flooding, species invasions. Along the way, however, I also have studied plant populations, roots, phosphorus run-off, songbird nest placement, nutritional quality of browse, sugar maple regeneration, riparian buffer width, tree seed dispersal, and stream habitat assessment. Delving into many varied fields probably hasn’t been the wisest research trajectory but it sure has been fun.
