Long-term (400 - 2,000 years) forest state-and-transition modeling. Research into wildfire suppression tipping points for fire use planning and budgeting. Used system dynamics software VenSim to prototype ponderosa pine forest stand management. Via computer simulation forest condition categories update year after year subject to deterministic or stochastic.
