Meet the team!
Dr. Lisa M. Ellsworth
Associate Professor
Lisa's research program is focused on the interactions among people, plants and animals, and disturbance processes in Western rangelands and forests. She uses both field and modeling techniques to investigate how management alternatives modify risk and resilience to wildfire and to post-fire recovery. Lisa is also a science communication fellow with the Wilburforce Foundation, and believes strongly that strengthening the ties between people and place through education and outreach is one of our most important tools to conserve landscapes.
