Research Interests

Private landowners — individuals, families, trusts, corporations, NGOs and other private organizations — own nearly 60% of the forested land in the U.S., and the decisions made by these landowners overwhelmingly influence the ecological trajectory of our nation’s forest resource. My research focuses on developing a better understanding of these landowners: their needs, motivations, objectives, and activities. To do so, I assist in implementing and analyzing the National Woodland Owner Survey (NWOS), a product of the U.S. Forest Service, Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program.
