Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Units Program:
Education, Research and Technical Assistance for Managing Our Natural Resources

Embere has a BS in Wildlife Ecology & Management and an MS in Ecology & Evolutionary Biology. She is fascinated by the incredibly diverse ways in which organisms deal with environmental challenges. In particular, she researches the degree to which animals adjust to human-induced environmental change. Her current work examines the ecological effects of climate change, and how wildlife may respond to a changing environment through exploitation of unique habitats or behaviors. Results of her research will contribute to enhanced management programs that can minimize biodiversity loss under rapid climate change.
