Garrett Meigs

Garrett Meigs is a Research Scientist at Oregon State University's College of Forestry, focusing on disturbance ecology and landscape dynamics. His work integrates field observations, remote sensing, and ecological modeling to study wildfire impacts, forest resilience, and conservation strategies.

Research examines fire refugia, post-disturbance recovery, and climate change adaptation in conifer ecosystems. Recent projects analyze how reduced fire severity buffers climate-driven declines in forest resilience, emphasizing practical applications for land management.

Publications span rewilding outcomes, wildfire treatment frameworks, and species conservation in fire-adapted landscapes. Studies employ scalable methodologies to evaluate ecological transformations across the western United States.
