Research Interest:
I am interested in the interactions between human land-use practices and changes in forest ecosystem structure and function. Much of my work has been historical in nature: using historical documents (survey records, photographs, census data) to reconstruct land-use/cover change over the past few centuries, and examining the legacies of anthropogenic and natural disturbance on forest composition and the provisioning of ecosystem services such as carbon storage. At a practical level, I am interested in interdisciplinary approaches to applied conservation issues, and working with local communities to identify trade-offs between human livelihoods and ecosystem services in human-dominated landscapes.
