in the Northern Rocky Mountains

Major Professor:  Dr. Janet Rachlow

Project Description:

My doctoral work is on fishers (Martes pennanti), a mature forest-associated species, for which the ecology is poorly known in the Northern Rocky Mountains.  My research focuses on developing models of resource selection at landscape and home range scales in multiple-use forests using satellite telemetry.
