<p>I am a MSc student at McGill University, Montreal, Canada. I study the many values that society has for forests and how these values recover following logging. Learn more here: <a href="http://sarahgergel.net/lel/?page_id=1356" rel="nofollow">http://sarahgergel.net/lel/?page_id=1356</a></p>

<p>I have basic experience fitting smooth lines with generalized additive models or optimizing different types of non-linear functions to data. Lastly, I am doing hypothesis tests with ANOVA on a split plot design. </p>
