Research Interests:
My primary field of interest is developing quantitative decision
support tools to aid forest and natural resource management. I am
particularly interested in building and testing mathematical models
that can quantify and visualize the resource trade-offs and production
possibilities between conflicting management objectives. I do research
in the following thematic areas:
- Forest management planning: spatially explicit harvest scheduling models, multiple-criteria forest planning.
- Operations research: integer programming, multiple-criteria optimization, multiple-criteria decision support systems.
- The economics of non-timber forest benefits.
