ESRM459 road side science talk with Todd Erdody

Not quite a rode side talk as we got to sit in an ‘old growth’ Yellowstone forest and visit with Todd (RSGAL graduate 2009) from the Forest Service and Becky from the YNP, both fire ecologist talking about fire and ecological succession and managment in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem…it’s nice to see old friends and…

SuFoRun @CATIE Costa Rica

Just coding optimization models in Python Anaconda Spyder @SuFoRun @CATIE Costa Rica. Fun stuff, coding feels familiar but I wish I would learn more of the mathematics behind it all. Dr. Moskal is also doing some microTLS scans, you can view them here: CATIE housing, mixed forest stand, bamboo stand. A crude video of the…

SEFS Graduate Student Symposium

Happening NOW, come and see what graduate students are up to at the SEFS Graduate Symposium! Anderson Hall 207. No RSGAL or PFC students presenting this year (Caileigh Shoot and Travis Axe two of RSGAL MSc students expecting to finish in Spring2018, are presenting at national conferences instead), but you should be aware that RSGAL…


Dr. Moskal’s office – LiDAR view

Can’t visit me in person, play around with a LiDAR perspective of my office (Bloedel 382).
