Research Information
Education:
PhD - Biology, Kansas State University MS - Agronomy, University of Georgia BS - Zoology, University of Georgia BA - English, University of Georgia
Current Research:
I am interested in ecosystem and community level responses of southern forests to management practices such as prescribed fire and mechanical thinning. I am particularly interested in how carbon and nitrogen dynamics are affected by these practices. Also of interest are the responses of invertebrate communities (e.g. earthworms, herbivorous insects, etc.) these land management practices, and how changes in invertebrate assemblages may lead to changes in other components of forest systems (e.g. nutrient relationships, plant-herbivore relationships).
Collaborative Research:
I am presently involved in collaborative efforts with scientists from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, The University of Georgia, and Clemson University, working on various projects related to invertebrates in Southeastern forests.
