... from the University of Minnesota. His research interests include forest and wetland hydrology, woody debris dynamics in riparian and lotic ecosystems, pathways and mechanisms of non-pointsource pollution, retrospective modeling of water and sediment yield, and conservation planning for watershed management.

... His current research includes colonization of the Great Lakes by exotic Pacific salmon (Chinook and coho) , colonization of Chile by introduced salmonids, evaluation of the Living Gene Bank Program for wild steelhead in British Columbia, and development of alternative breeding designs for maintaining genetic quality in captive fish populations.

... Recent research projects include a comparison of 20-year trends in genetic diversity and productivity in steelhead trout populations based on analysis of DNA polymorphisms; performance evaluations of different walleye populations in the same lakes; examination of genetic effects of hatchery rainbow trout on naturalized steelhead populations by testing survival of pure and hybrid crosses in isolated stream reaches; and testing population effects of gene flow from growth-enhanced transgenic fish to wild relatives. She has served on a number of national and international committees, including the NRC's Committee on Protection and Management of Pacific Northwest Anadromous Salmonids and the NRC's Committee on Biological Confinement of Genetically Engineered Organisms.

... His research interests include biometrics and population theory, spanning the fields of genetics, ecology, demography, epidemiology, anthropology, and systematics. He has served on a number of committees and panels including the Committee to Study Quantitative Genetics and Common Diseases, NIH, 1978; Population Biology and Physiological Ecology Panel, NSF 1980­83; NRC Ad Hoc Committee to Study Endangered Amphibians, 1990; DNA Subcommittee, New York State Forensic Commission 1995­98; U.S.
