Andrea Woodward

As an emerita scientist, I have been finishing up a few projects that were not completed before I retired. These included two papers with co-authors describing long-term data sets: 36 years of research on old-growth forest structure based on data from elk exclosures and 28 years of data on subalpine fir seedling survival, both in Olympic National Park. I also completed with co-authors an implementation guide for decision tools meant to incorporate climate change into management decisions made by the USDA Forest Service. I am currently working on updating a field guide to mosses, lichens, and liverworts of the Pacific Northwest. I remain very interested in the curious distribution of cottonwoods in Olympic National Park and may pursue that a bit more before calling it a career.
