Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Shaun Tanger's research investigates various aspects of natural resource management and animal behavior. His work includes studies on conservation easements and landowners' willingness to accept compensation for forest thinning, as well as the optimization of pellet supply systems considering biomass quality. Tanger also examines timberland management within oligopoly markets and estimates stand-level carbon supply curves for pine and fir plantations.

Further research areas include timber price trends and volatility in regional markets, stakeholder risk perceptions regarding wild pigs, and the significance of terminal value in timber harvest scheduling and valuation. His publications also address chronic wasting disease, offering a systematic literature review of its prevalence, impacts, and management. Tanger has a total of 64 publications and a h-index of 10, with 339 citations. He has collaborated with several researchers from the University of Arkansas at Monticello.
