Initially my research and publication record has included many aspects of building urban microclimate investigations. I have received several grants to pursue this research.
My research interests then focussed on outdoor recreation inventories and resource management for tourism in Newfoundland. For instance, I was commissioned to prepare a hiking trail guide for Gros Morne National Park and the next summer was contracted to do a visitor use and economic impact survey for the Main River, Newfoundland's first nominated Canadian Heritage River. As well I have received another grant to examine 3 components of the Western Newfoundland Model Forest: to prepare a visual resources inventory, an outdoor recreational inventory and a series of 4 brochures to enhance public awareness of the hiking, mountain biking, canoeing and x-country ski opportunities in the Model Forest. I have received grants to create a Guide Training and Resource Manual for Burnt Island Ecological Reserve (with Ed Andrews) and to complete a study entitled Geo-referencing of Non-Timber Values in The Western Newfoundland Model Forest.
