个人简介

Andrew received a BSc in Forestry at the University of Aberdeen in 1980 and went on to do a PhD in cloning and genetic variation in tree species. In 1983, Andrew took up the opportunity to move out of academia and into the industry where he worked for the Forestry Commission as a Forest Officer for 6 years. It was during this time where his interest in sustainable forests both as a provider of a major natural resource in wood and in the critical role of environmental protection. He returned to the University of Aberdeen to take up the post of Lecturer in Silviculture and Forest Planning in 1989 where he has developed these areas in both teaching and research.

研究领域

Main research interest is in studying the relationship between tree breeding and stem quality and wood properties of forest trees with particular emphasis on the genetic heritability of the properties of the juvenile core. Research interests also includes an investigation into the formation of juvenile wood in naturally-regenerated Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis (Bong.) Carr.) trees grown in dense stands. Other interests include studying the mechanisms associated with the temporal development of wood properties of forest trees in mixed species stands, and regeneration dynamics within irregular forest stands.
