Josh is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Forestry and Environmental Resources and joined the Center for Geospatial Analytics as a Faculty Fellow in 2016. He is interested in how land use and vegetation dynamics interact with the climate system to produce changes in water and carbon cycles, particularly in managed lands like croplands and timber plantations. Remote sensing, geospatial analytics, and ecosystem modeling figure prominently in Josh’s work. Other interests include UAS remote sensing, big-data geocomputation, and bluegrass music.
