Todd Arnold

Todd Arnold is a Professor in the Department of Fisheries, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology at the University of Minnesota's College of Biological Sciences. His research focuses on the ecology and conservation of wetland- and prairie-dependent wildlife, particularly waterfowl, with expertise in population dynamics, mark-recapture analysis, and adaptive management. He teaches courses in fisheries and wildlife conservation, including FW 2001 and FW 5051.

• Education: Ph.D., University of Western Ontario

Research Interests: Arnold's work emphasizes population assessment and modeling to guide management activities, including estimating vital rates (nest success, brood survival) and developing predictive models for wildlife conservation. His methodologies address ecological and anthropogenic drivers of productivity and survival in wetland and grassland species.

Publication Trends: Recent articles highlight interdisciplinary approaches combining ecological theory with applied management, covering waterfowl productivity patterns, polar bear demography, and methodological advances in adaptive resource management frameworks.
