Biography

Terri joined the Vermont Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit in 2000, where she is the Assistant Unit Leader and Associate Research Professor in the Rubenstein School of Environment and Natural Resources at the University of Vermont. Terri's research emphases include population dynamics, population modeling and structured decision making, landscape ecology, and conservation biology. Current research efforts focus on adaptive management for both game and non-game species, including population dynamics of moose and ecosystem monitoring with remote devices such as trail cameras and recording units. With a background in education, Terri is an avid teacher and enjoys working with all age groups. Current teaching efforts include an on-line Principles of Modeling course and an on-line Occupancy Modeling course, both geared for graduate students and professionals. Terri also directs the Spreadsheet/R Project, a suite of tutorials on quantitative data analysis and modeling in ecology, and oversees the development of the Adaptive Management Toolkit, a suite of R packages to enable adaptive management.
