Research focuses on the management, conservation, and stewardship of biocultural resources and the ecosystems in which they are found.
What we do:
How we work:
We utilize collaborative and participatory approaches in our research. Partnerships, co-production, and collaboration are key components of our process.
Current research
Research spans topics, themes, issues and scales; yet all are applied in nature. Most of our work investigates how plant populations and communities respond to disturbance events (e.g., fire, invasive species) and management activities (e.g., fuels treatments, grazing, restoration) and how these responses influence a range of ecosystem services, including biodiversity, plant community, wildlife habitat, the abundance of culturally important plant resources, and more..
