Title: Research Physical Scientist

Specialties: Permafrost / Remote Sensing / Ecosystems / Spatial Analysis / GIS / Surficial Processes / Geophysics / Cryostratigraphy / Vegetation

Current Research: Research interests include terrain suitability for permafrost degradation (including thermokarst) processes, regional-scale changes in permafrost- related ecological processes and land cover, and linking permafrost cryostructure and ground ice distribution with surficial geology, geomorphology, and vegetation.
