Hello, I’m Kevin Potter, research professor of forestry at North Carolina State University.

I am a forest tree conservation biologist and landscape ecologist who works closely with the Eastern Forest Environmental Threat Assessment Center of the U.S. Forest Service.

My work includes conservation assessments of vulnerable tree species, broad-scale studies of ecosystem functions associated with biodiversity, evaluations of species invasion patterns and processes, and rangewide genetic diversity studies of tree species at risk.

I also serve as lead editor of U.S. Forest Service annual reports on the health of the nation’s forests.
