Dr. Carissa Brown

Previous Education:

BSc in Ecology and Environmental Science, University of Maine

Research Project:

My work is on the fire ecology of wild berries in Newfoundland. For my project, I will be investigating why fire creates ideal conditions for lowbush blueberry, the human management of berry patches through controlled burning, and the role of Newfoundland's climate in fire-berry interactions.

Research Interests:

I am interested in long-term ecological processes and dynamics of fire, climate, vegetation, and people.
