   abstract: "Interests include waterfowl ecology and conservation, sandhill cranes,\
     \ whooping cranes, and conservation and restoration of habitats they depend\
     \ on. Specific areas of interest and extensive field experience include capture/banding\
     \ and marking techniques used on medium to large birds, development, and use\
     \ of new technologies for remotely tracking wildlife, and waterfowl nesting\
     \ and brood rearing in prairie landscapes.  He has conducted research on breeding,\
     \ migrating, and wintering birds throughout the southern, central, and northern\
     \ Great Plains and marked and monitored birds that migrate from Mexico to Russia.\
     \ He has been involved with sandhill cranes and the Central Platte River Valley\
     \ of Nebraska since the late 1990\u2019s, capturing, marking, and monitoring\
     \ hundreds of these ancient migrants.  Since 2009, research included capturing\
     \ and marking endangered whooping cranes from the remaining wild population\
     \ to gather baseline information on migration, habitat use, and important stopover\
     \ areas throughout their annual cycle.  He developed a capture method that enabled\
     \ the first marking of adult whooping cranes from this population on their wintering\
     \ grounds.  He is also involved in investigating techniques used for establishing\
     \ high diversity native plantings in degraded landscapes."
