Research Interests

  • Mule deer migration and the influence of development on behavior and their ability to track changes in phenology
  • Wildlife Corridors - spatial modeling/visualization, management decisions/adaptive management, collaborative process, public awareness
  • Citizen science: involcement, data collection, participation and communication
  • Communication and Outreach to GIS users throughout the state, region, and beyond
  • Data management and dissemination to support geospatial aspects of research
  • Remote sensing analysis applications in semiarid environments
  • Using geospatial and remote sensing technologies to understand climate variability and land use impacts
