Current Research Projects:

Winterberry Citizen Science - Do longer growing seasons influence berry phenology and fate in fall and winter? Does level of support from scientists and storytelling influence citizen science engagement? (NSF Funded)

Fresh Eyes on Ice - How is freshwater ice thickness changing through time? Is there a difference in community based monitoring outcomes with youth when projects have greater levels of co-creation? (NSF and NASA funded)

Alaska Berry Futures Project - What are the community priorities for berry research in Alaska? What are the data gaps? (USGS Funded)

Wildfire and Invasive Species in the Boreal Forest: State of the Science - What is the current status of knowledge on the interaction between fire and invasive plant species in Alaska? How have my prior field sites responded more than a decade later and how persistent is the non-native seed bank? (US Forest Service Funded)
