Steve Wolf joined the Department of Natural Resources in 2001 after a
Post-Doctoral Fellowship at University of California, Berkeley and
Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique, Toulouse, France. His
interdisciplinary research and teaching is focused on institutional
innovation applied to questions of natural resource conservation and
sustainable development.
Research
His current research examines (i) evolution of technical service
delivery mechanisms to private forestland owners in the U.S and Finland,
(ii) policy tools for sustaining “working forest” in The Northern Forest
(New England and New York State), reconfiguration of knowledge networks in agricultural systems to conserve water quality and (iii) co-evolution of institutions,
knowledge, and environment.
