Christopher A Pearl
I am a Wildlife Biologist at the USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center in Corvallis, OR.
I work on research and monitoring studies for a variety of aquatic and terrestrial species in the Pacific Northwest. I am particularly interested in restoration of wetland and riparian systems, herpetology, and interactions between native and invasive species.
