Angela Burrow

Angela is a wildlife ecologist broadly interested in how wildlife populations and communities respond to environmental change. Through her work she investigates the mechanisms driving the responses of individuals, populations and communities to environmental change as well as seeks to inform the sustainable management of natural resources. She is especially interested in amphibians and the interactions between natural dynamic processes (e.g., fire, succession), human-driven disturbance, and management of natural resources that impact their conservation. Angela earned her PhD in Forestry and Natural Resources in 2021 from the University of Georgia, where she investigated how disturbance and plant community change in the aquatic and terrestrial environment affect gopher frog (Rana capito) and ornate chorus frog (Pseudacris ornata) populations. As a Postdoctoral Associate with Dr. Bernd Blossey, she is now investigating the impact of forest and wetland change on amphibians through a ‘multiple stressor’ lens. A critical part of Angela’s work is evaluating the effectiveness of restoration and management actions for the conservation of amphibians. She is also passionate about teaching, mentoring and working to build a more just, equitable, and inclusive science community. Please visit her website to learn more.
