Andrew Finley, assistant professor, in the Department of Forestry at Michigan State University has received the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) CAREER Award—one of NSF’s most prestigious awards supporting early career-development activities of faculty members who most effectively integrate research and education within the context of the mission of their organization.

Finley’s proposal, “Advancements in Spatio-temporal Modeling and Education in Support of NEON and Large-scale and Long-term Ecological Research,” will be funded for a five-year period. This research, in collaboration with the Boulder-based National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON), will develop new flexible spatio-temporal modeling frameworks designed to assess NEON's research in the areas of climate change, land use, invasive species, biogeochemistry, biodiversity, ecohydrology, and infectious diseases.
