My research centers broadly on the ecology and conservation biological diversity, in the context of global change. My research spans multiple scales from local-scale community ecology and human-wildlife coexistence, to landscape ecology and global-scale macroecology. I use field studies, ecological modeling, and community engagement to address questions on the ecology and conservation of biological diversity at both local and global scales. My field research often focuses on species that play large and important ecological roles that shape and transform ecosystems, such as burrowing rodents and large mammalian herbivores in grassland systems. Much of this work centers on community ecology, but is interdisciplinary, integrating human dimensions, restoration, population, ecosystem, and global change ecology. My macroecology research addresses questions in basic ecology and those related to the large-scale conservation challenges that face our planet, such as global biodiversity loss and extinction risk.
