spatial patterns

I have been studying habitat relationships and life-history organization of cutthroat trout for more than 35 years. I am currently a research biologist with the USGS Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center in Bozeman, Montana, and I am an affiliate assistant professor in the Department of Ecology at Montana State University. My interest in the role of disturbance in shaping the aquatic systems has led to research on the interactions among landscape-scale environmental features, instream habitat characteristics, and cutthroat trout abundance and distribution.
