Dr Stanturf is a visiting Professor, Institute of Forestry and Rural Engineering, Estonian University of Life Sciences and Retired Senior Scientist, US Forest Service. His research focuses on forest landscape restoration, disturbance ecology, climate change adaptation, and bioenergy. He earned MSc and PhD Forest Soils from Cornell University. Awards include an Honorary Doctorate from the Estonian University of Life Sciences, Distinguished Science Award from the Chief of the Forest Service, and the Distinguished Service Award from the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO). He has conducted research in temperate and tropical forests in North and South America, Europe, and Asia. He also worked on REDD+, climate change vulnerability, and related issues in Africa through consultancies with the US Agency for International Development. He continues to consult and conduct training through IUFRO on Forest Landscape Restoration in support of the Bonn Challenge and on sustainable forestry through InNovaSilva Aps, a Danish consulting firm. Mac Callaham is a Research Ecologist with the USDA Forest Service’s Southern Research Station in Athens, Georgia. He has 25 years’ experience of working in soil ecology with projects ranging from agroecology to ecotoxicology to grassland and forest restoration and management. Following graduate school at Kansas State University, he held post-doctoral positions at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (2000-01), and with the USDA Forest Service at Clemson University (2001-03). In 2005, Callaham became a Team Leader within the Center for Forest Disturbance Science, a unit of the Forest Service’s Southern Research Station In 2005, Callaham was awarded the Southern Research Station Director’s Award for Early Career Scientists. Having long been interested in international research, Callaham was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship in 2010 to participate in research in southern Brazil with a focus on restoration of Atlantic rainforest ecosystems. In 2014, he received a Visiting Professorship for Senior International Scientists appointment from the Chinese Academy of Sciences to instruct a course on soil ecology at the Northeast Institute for Agroecology and Geography in Changchun, China. Callaham serves on the editorial board for Applied Soil Ecology, and had been guest editor for peer-reviewed special issues of the journals Pedobiologia, Applied Soil Ecology and Restoration Ecology.
