Jonathan Knudsen, M.S.
Biography
I earned a B.S. (2012) in Biology at Doane College in Crete, Nebraska. My previous research projects include: evaluating anecdotal reports of a novel feeding strategy of Chrysemys picta in Western Nebraska for a senior research project at Doane College; conducting frog call surveys, wetland assessments, and sampling tadpoles for chytrid for the Nebraska Cooperative Fisheries and Wildlife Research Unit; and counting tadpoles and collecting habitat data for Alabama A&M University. My research interests include disturbance ecology, restoration ecology, herpetology, arachnology and entomology. I am currently working on evaluating the impacts of wildland fire on ant community structure and conducting coarse woody debris surveys and evaluating the role of coarse woody debris as refuge for arthropods and amphibians in Valles Caldera National Preserve in New Mexico. My other interests include hiking, fly fishing, running, whiskey, Star Wars and my two cats Bo and Belle.
