SYNERGISTIC ACTIVITIES
Development of databases to support research: Created and administer relational database
supporting data storage and exchange among the more than 90 global sites
participating in the Nutrient Network collaborative grassland experiment.
Coordinate data availability to Network members for querying and analysis.
Promoting data management and data sharing in ecology: As member of best practices
working group for the NSF-funded DataONE project, document recommended data
management techniques for ecologists and other life scientists, including noting
useful technological tools. Co-authored one of the original example Data
Management Plans available on DataONE website.
Citizen Science: Led 8 research expeditions on temperate forest ecology in a mapped forest
dynamics plot at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center, with each
expedition attended by up to 12 citizen scientists from HSBC Corporation and the
Earthwatch Institute (mentored over 100 participants).
Peer Review of Publications: The American Naturalist, Australian Journal of Entomology,
