Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher's public record spans two distinct areas: remote sensing and modeling of forests and streams (using LiDAR, a laser-based technology for measuring landscape and vegetation structure), and engineering education (developing lab hardware and evaluation tools for teaching embedded microcontroller courses). The work includes methods for estimating sunlight reaching forested streams and tools for assessing forest landscapes for land management purposes.
