Emily J. Wilkins, Ph.D.

I'm a research social scientist at the U.S. Geological Survey, Fort Collins Science Center. This is a personal website (used to store free copies of all my work) -  for my USGS staff profile, see here.

Broadly, I'm interested in conducting research that helps inform public lands and outdoor recreation management. Most of my previous work focused on: (1) how visitor behavior on public lands may shift under changing weather and climate conditions; and (2) how to use freely available online data (e.g., social media, Google Trends) to inform park and protected area management.
