Her interest in ecosystem restoration\ \ led her to the University of Wisconsin-Madison, where she participated in\ \ the restoration ecology group, and helped design a new Conservation Biology\ \ Master\u2019s program. In 1988, she began working with the National Park Service\ \ in the Great Lakes region on conservation of coastal ecosystems. She began\ \ long-term studies of a threatened dune thistle in one of the habitats she\ \ loves best: coastal dunes. Her research interests led her to the California\ \ south coast, where she continues to study rare plants and vegetation. Her\ \ particular interests are in the study of how the vegetation forms the context\ \ for rare plant persistence, as seen through long-term demographic patterns\ \ in the rare plants of the California Channel Islands. To look at this question,\ \ she is tracking the native and alien plant communities of the islands along\ \ with a suite of rare native plants that inhabit these communities. She guides\ \ the Prototype Vegetation Monitoring Program at Channel Islands National Park,\ \ and assists other agencies with plant community and rare plant monitoring\ \ program design.RESEARCH INTERESTSChaparral EcologyCoastal Sage EcologyCommunity\ \ ecologyConservation biologyEcological monitoringGeographic Information SystemsInvasive\ \ species ecologyLandscape ecologyLandscape patternsPlant ecologyPop. viab.\ \ modelsPopulation biologyRestoration ecologySpecies/Population managementWeed\ \ management" professional_experience: [] title: Research Ecologist
