2015 The Garden Club of America Fellowship in Tropical Botany
Timothy L Treuer is a Ph.D. candidate in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Princeton University. His goal is to better understand drivers (such as soil quality and landscape composition) of community structure and composition in regenerating the tropical dry forest in Área de Conservación Guanacaste (ACG), Costa Rica, one of the world's largest tropical forest restoration projects. This research has the potential to lead to a more nuanced understanding of recovering forests and the role they can play in preserving endangered tropical dry forest species.
