Research Areas:
Bayesian FilteringForest InventoryGrowth and YieldSampling TheorySilvicultureTimberTree MeasurementMy research interests are tree measurement, forest sampling, and quantitative silviculture. I develop close-range photogrammetry tools to measure hard-to-reach tree attributes. My work in forest sampling is designing efficient and cost-effective probability-based inventory systems to estimate timber production, ecosystem services, and forest growth. I focus on using auxiliary information to guide the selection of ground samples. My primary interest in quantitative silviculture is Bayesian filtering to project forest development.
