Jeff's current research includes resiliency of boreal stream ecosystems to wildlife, hydrologic and juvenile salmon responses to climate change in coastal Alaska, and impacts and management of invasive Northern pike in south-central Alaska. He teaches graduate courses in research design and freshwater habitat dynamics at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. professional_experience: - Unit Leader, Alaska Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, 2019- - Assistant Unit Leader, Alaska Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, 2012-2019 title: Research Fish Biologist
