I enjoyed teaching Forest Biology during the Summer Practicum at Solon Dixon Forestry Education Center. I'm inspired by the energy, curiosity, and passion the students bring. They remind me why I love what I do and reaffirm the importance of hands-on, field-based education in forestry. #teaching
Growth dynamics of longleaf pine during conversion to uneven-aged stands
A growing recognition that uneven-aged silviculture can offer multiple benefits to forested ecosystems has encouraged some landowners in the southern …
