Current Research Projects

• Development of a novel fire spread model, Time-dependent Spread Rate (TSR) model, built on the foundation of FlamMap's outputs and incorporating cellular automaton, cost surface analysis, and time-dependent graphs.

• Fire behavior and risk modeling using FlamMap, FARSITE, SpatialFOFEM, and the TSR model in the Superior National Forest to examine the effects of fuel treatments for biochar production on fire behavior change and risk mitigation (with a large team from the Northern Research Station, USFS, and various universities). 

• The influence of deadwood management in western forests on megafires, biodiversity, and carbon sequestration (with Rabindra Parajuli).

• The effects of climate change on wildfire hazard risks, impacts, and adaptation, with the goal of producing a review or meta-analysis for a guest edited edition of GeoHazards (with Rabindra Parajuli and Asha Paudel).

• Various ecological and environmental importance in Florida, including anthropogenic and climate impacts on manatee distribution, parasite effects on oyster populations, the integration of empathy in child environmental education, depredation of sharks on recreational fishing, and the effects of utility scale solar on nutrients loads in coastal systems (with my graduate students).
