Graduate students and other volunteers help install drift fences on the Cold Mountain Game Land in western North Carolina.<\/div><\/div>\n

My research is focused on understanding the effects of global change on wildlife, with an emphasis on disturbance ecology.\u00a0 The research typically is applied and often employs large-scale, replicated environmental manipulations.<\/p>\n

Current research activities are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Current Project: White-tailed deer ecology across an urban to rural gradient<\/li>\n
  • Current Project: Weather and climate effects on wild turkey reproduction<\/li>\n
  • Current Project: Using a long-term data set to assess climate change impacts on red-cockaded woodpecker reproduction<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Although I historically have studied non-game species, my interests are rooted more in the particulars of specific land use practices than in the taxonomic groups studied.\u00a0 For example, I am fascinated by fire ecology and study response by both game (e.g., bobwhite, turkey, deer) and non-game (e.g., salamanders, shrews, songbirds) taxa to prescribed burning.<\/p>\n

    I value my relationships with graduate students and I do all that I can to spend time with each in the field and schedule periodic meetings to discuss the challenges and opportunities of ongoing research.\u00a0 My door always is open.<\/p>\n
