Jason has over 18 years of experience in the design and implementation of fisheries research, restoration effectiveness monitoring, and status and trends monitoring studies. He has worked on numerous projects focused on salmonid ecology, life history diversity, habitat restoration, and habitat use during riverine, estuarine, and marine life stages. His most recent work has focused on nearshore and estuarine environments with a particular focus on using geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing to address watershed and regional-scale habitat status, trends, and restoration effectiveness questions. In addition, he has published numerous papers in scientific journals and regularly presents at conferences.
