Emily is an interdisciplinary environmental social scientist, with experience integrating quantitative and qualitative research methods to protect natural resources and improve climate resilience. She has been with CCL since 2017, as a graduate researcher, postdoc, and now staff researcher. Emily has worked on a diverse range of research projects exploring attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors surrounding natural resources in urban areas, tribal lands, and agricultural lands, with a special focus on water resource protection. Results from her research have highlighted potential risks and opportunities for natural resource protection, and have informed policy decisions to protect water resources for multiple uses and values. She is most interested in the gap between climate risk perceptions and pro-environmental behavior adoption, and the impacts of values, beliefs, norms, and science communication on closing that gap.
