Research

My research interests are focused on measurement and description of forests and resources derived from forests. The national forest inventory of the United States is a primary focus of my work and I’m involved in research into estimation methods and techniques, extending the inventory to urban areas, monitoring of timber product output, and forest disturbance estimation and analysis.
