Steve Matthews, Wildlife Landscape Ecologist
- Ph.D., Ohio State University
- USDA Forest Service Scientist
- A landscape ecologist studies how different land uses influence and shape ecological communities. I am particularly interested in how birds and forests respond to a changing environment.

Christina Liang, Ecologist
- Ph.D., University of California-Davis
- USDA Forest Service Scientist
- An ecologist studies the interactions between living things and their environment. The environment includes the physical environment such as climate, water, and soil as well as biological environment such as other living things.

Serra J. Hoagland, Biological Scientist
- Ph.D., (student) Northern Arizona University
- USDA Forest Service Scientist
- Biological scientists study many different types of organisms from endangered birds to large predators. We study wildlife populations and their habitat to help conserve them for future generations!

Nöel Fletcher, Wildlife Biologist
- B.S., University of Idaho
- USDA Forest Service Scientist
- A wildlife biologist collects and shares information to ensure that wildlife species’ needs are considered when designing and implementing projects on public lands, from mountain bike rides to prescribed fires and new trails construction to old road closures.
