معرفی
David Woodruff is an Adjunct Professor at Oregon State University's College of Forestry, affiliated with the Department of Forest Ecosystems & Society. He specializes in genetics, physiology, and ecophysiology of forest ecosystems, with a focus on plant water relations and stress responses.
- B.A., University of Colorado, Boulder (1992)
- M.S., Oregon State University (2000)
- Ph.D., Oregon State University (2008)
His research explores tree physiology, forest canopy processes, and photosynthetic gas exchange, emphasizing how plants respond to environmental stressors like drought. Key areas include the dynamics of water transport in tall conifers and carbon storage in forest systems.
Recent publications highlight trends in forest hydraulics, drought resilience, and species-specific hydraulic strategies. Woodruff's work spans topics such as fire ecology in ponderosa pine forests, turgor-driven growth mechanisms, and stomatal regulation under vapor pressure deficit.
As a Graduate Major Advisor, he mentors students in forest ecology and physiology. His office is located at 338 FSL, and he can be contacted via phone at (541) 750-7494 or email at david.woodruff@oregonstate.edu.
