Join us for a discussion with Dartmouth College Assistant Professor of Environmental Studies Shersingh Joseph Tumber-Dávila, who will share perspectives on New England’s woodlands, with a focus on forest disturbances. This presentation and Q&A will address historical change drivers such as deforestation, droughts, and hurricanes, as well as more emergent risks and opportunities related to climate change, development, and carbon markets. Tumber-Dávila will integrate details from his unique interdisciplinary research approach, which includes regional-scale experiments, syntheses, and modeling. He will also discuss the fascinating, complex subterranean realm of roots and soil.
Tumber-Dávila joined Dartmouth faculty in Fall 2024 and is the E.E. Just Faculty Fellow. He is affiliated with the Graduate Program in Ecology, Evolution, Ecosystems and Society. Prior to coming to Dartmouth, Tumber-Dávila was the LTER Postdoctoral Fellow at Harvard Forest, Harvard University, and he received his Ph.D. and M.S. in Environmental Earth System Science at Stanford University as well as his B.S. in Environmental Conservation and Sustainability from the University of New Hampshire.
