Dave Affleck ‘06 Ph.D.

University of Montana

Dr. Affleck’s research is focused on the development of probability sampling methods and statistical modeling techniques for natural resource assessment and monitoring. Recently his work has been directed to the design of sampling strategies for forest inventory and the survey of downed woody materials, and to the application of nonlinear mixture models for characterizing forest growth and mortality. Results from this research have been published in both the forestry and statistical literature.
