Alissa Brown (PhD, Biology, White/Peet)Interests: patterns of biodiversity and species coexistence. I use mapped forest plots in the NC Piedmont to examine conspecific negative density dependence in temperate trees. I’m also using CVS data to evaluate patterns of biodiversity across the southeastern U.S. Degrees: E-Mail: alissab@live.unc.edu |
