We study the patterns and mechanisms underlying tree (and plants in general) responses to environmental change and abiotic stress, and examine how species, population, and genotypic differences shape such responses. We also study climate change impacts on the structure and function of natural and managed ecosystems.
Our goals are to: 1) inform predictions of species and ecosystem responses to environmental change, 2) inform sustainable management of grassland and forest ecosystems, and 3) provide data for improving our quantitative and predictive understanding of physiological responses to environmental change, and their representation in process-based models.

Our commitment to diversity and inclusion: We welcome and value people of all races, religions, ethnicities, sexes, and sexual orientations, and reject all forms of discrimination, hatred, and bigotry.
