Greg Hill’s research looks broadly at applications of mathematics to environmental and sustainability issues.  He is an investigator in a National Science Foundation funded study of the use of computer-based tools for decision making in the effort to restore endangered salmon populations in the Columbia River Basin.  His work in Resilience Theory has applications including: developing ways to predict the vulnerability of an ecosystem to cascading extinctions; incorporating climate change and other environmental factors into the renegotiation of the Columbia River Treaty.

Steven Kolmes’ interests are in the areas of salmon recovery planning, combining ethical and scientific analyses in environmental policy discussions, water and air quality issues, and the sublethal effects of pesticides. He teaches courses in marine biology, invertebrate zoology, environmental science, and animal behavior.
