My research is in three main areas: 1) advancing models of carbon fluxes derived from eddy covariance (EC) studies, 2) developing models characterizing the population dynamics of Bertholletia excelsa (Brazil nut); and 3) enhancing models of urban forest structure and growth, and their responses to exotic invasive woody species.
The Staudhammer Biometrics lab focuses on quantitative research in ecological systems. Our interdisciplinary research covers a broad range of topics, including mixed effects models in forestry and natural resources, design and analysis of experimental data, quantifying size and structure distributional differences in natural systems, and quantifying model uncertainty.
