Masters Research:
Spatial prioritization for invasive species management

My project uses remote sensing techniques to create a spatial prioritization map that will identify invasive hotspots for management. Maps will be created by using LANDSAT imagery to estimate the current/historical distribution of bush honeysuckle (Lonicera maackii) while also using ranking systems of different environmental aspects to identify areas in most need of invasive management.
