Background

About Corey Burt

I am a Terrestrial Ecologist, Botanist and ISA Certified Arborist with a specialized interest in field botany. I have completed an MSc. studying the taxonomy of Dodder (Cuscuta spp.). I have 8 years experience in the field including botanical inventories, vegetation community classification, vegetation monitoring and tree inventory. I also conduct a variety of aquatic and wildlife surveys including electrofishing, wetland and woodland delineation, breeding bird surveys, migratory bird nest searches, amphibian call surveys, bat maternity roost surveys, and acoustic bat surveys. In addition to field skills, I also have experience working in herbaria where I have collected, preserved, digitized, and managed herbarium specimens. I have taught a variety of plant identification courses at public and professional levels. I am most interested in field botany, herbarium curation, and phytogeography.
