Biography
Dr. Pope earned a B.S. from Texas A&M University, an M.S. from Auburn University, and a Ph.D. from South Dakota State University. Prior to joining the Cooperative Research Units program, he was a tenured Associate Professor at Texas Tech University. Kevin served the Nebraska Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research unit as an Assistant Unit Leader and as Unit Leader. Kevin and his students conducted research designed to further understanding and enhance management of complex social-ecological systems, especially inland recreational fisheries, by focusing on interactions and associated thresholds and feedback mechanisms between recreational-angler behavior and fish behavior on multiple scales. Quantifying and understanding these interactive influences allowed for more informed management of recreational fisheries. In his current role as Deputy, Kevin is interested in exploring ways to facilitate and enhance transboundary and transdisciplinary research, education, and technical assistance—leveraging our formal and informal partnerships—because he believes these activities will ultimately enhance the professional development of our current and future managers and scientists while producing science-based management actions that benefit our natural resources and ensure sustainable use. He also desires to formally develop leadership skills in people. One of Kevin’s passions is chasing crappie and green sunfish from the front deck of his bass boat.
