Current Research
My current work can be broadly summarized into various national and regional Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program responsibilities involving research and coordination activities:
- National Coordinator, U.S. Greenhouse Gas Inventory, LULUCF-Forestry Sector
- National Advisor, FIA Down Woody Materials Inventory
- Supervisor, Northern FIA Carbon Accounting and Timber Products Inventory Group
- Lead Inventory Analyst, State of Indiana
Thus, my current research entails forest carbon inventory science, forest detritus dynamics research, refining the survey and analysis of forest products/biomass, and development of novel forest inventory analytical approaches (e.g., tree range shift indicators).
Why is This Important
My research, leadership, and analyses fill critical information needs regarding forest ecosystems to the general public, resource managers, scientists, policy makers, economists, and a wide range of other natural resource specialists. Success in this mission is crucial to assessing the sustainability of not only forest ecosystems in the northern United States, but also the health of our Nation's forests. Research outputs provide Forest Service customers and clients with crucial information and provide improved techniques for data application to a range of resource inventory and monitoring needs (e.g., national carbon stock assessment and national forest stand relative density).
Future Research
My desires for future research include: coordinating a nationally comprehensive research strategy to improve the forest carbon inventory conducted by FIA that is provided as the U.S.'s official Greenhouse Gas Inventory (LULUCF-forestry sector), refining Down Woody Material estimation/analysis procedures to allow for carbon stock and change estimates, describing linkages between well known stand development processes and the accumulation of dead and down woody materials in forests, developing indicators of contemporary tree range shifts, and creating a nationalized timber products inventory in the U.S.
