Research
My research develops predictive, multi-stressor frameworks in ecotoxicology that connect pesticide use, measured exposure, and ecological outcomes. I integrate long-term U.S. monitoring data (e.g., USGS NAWQA) with spatial/statistical modeling to convert pesticide mixtures into toxic units and relate them to fish and macroinvertebrate condition. A current focus is validating policy-facing pesticide “pressure” indicators derived from use and regulatory thresholds against measured toxicity and biological responses, clarifying when these indicators reliably reflect ecological risk and when they fail.
