Dr. Rogers led a primary forests case study in the Angara region of Siberia, a hotspot for primary forest disturbance and protection. Through this, his research team assessed the major threats to primary forests in the region, with a focus on logging, and quantified the economic value of preserving Angara\u2019s primary forests.<\/p>\n

In collaboration with others in the project team, Dr. Rogers developed novel methods for mapping forest stability in Siberia and the Amazon \u2013 a technique that can be applied from landscape to continental scales. He also co-developed a framework for ecosystem integrity to be integrated into global forest and climate policy, and one which would prioritize the protection of primary forests.<\/p>\n
