Current Research
VA Bog Turtle
Population Assessment
I am utilizing a Caputre-Mark-Recapture methodology to determine whether a subset of known bog turtle populations have changed in terms of abundance and density in the past 20+ years in southwest Virginia
Experimental Nest Predation Study
By using artificially created "bog turtle nests" I am trying to understand the relationship between anthropogenically subsidized mesocarnivores and baseline rates of nest predation
Landscape-scale Analysis of Wetland-Urban Overlap
I am gathering publicly available data, as well as a previously developed habitat predictive model to identify areas within bog turtles range in Virginia that are likely to face urban encroachment
