Corey Grinnell’s work focuses on the influences of habitat manipulation on avian behavior, habitat use, productivity, and survival. Corey brings to the table over 15 years of wildlife research experience from across the continental United States and Hawaii. His most recent work ranges from inland forest surveys of Marbled Murrelets in the Pacific Northwest to radar and visual studies of nocturnal bird and bat migration throughout the country. His background includes investigating the influences of an erosion control revetment on the nesting biology of endangered Roseate Terns in Long Island Sound, and population and productivity monitoring of threatened Snowy Plovers in Oregon. Corey’s research provides useful biological information to wildlife and land managers in both public and private sectors. Corey received his M.S. in wildlife conservation from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.
