Andrew Scholl, Assistant Professor of Geography and Director of Environmental Studies Program teaches courses in Physical Geography, Biogeography, Human Ecology and Cultural Geography. His current research focuses on studying vegetation dynamics of old-growth forests in the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Specifically, he studies the role of climatic variation on fire regimes, and the impact of management decisions (especially fire suppression) on forest regeneration, fire regimes, and carbon sequestration. He has published research on old-growth red fir forests in Forest Ecology and Management. He received a B.A. (Political Science) and B.S. (Biology) from Baldwin-Wallace College, and a M.S. and Ph.D. (Geography) from Penn State University. He joined the Wittenberg faculty in 2007.
