Robert’s work at Forest Research is currently focused on applying approaches from finance to managing risk in wooded landscapes as part of the Connected Treescapes project.
Robert joined Forest Research in January 2022 after finishing his MSc in Economics at the University of East Anglia (UEA) the previous year. For his thesis, he used the hedonic pricing method to estimate the value of river quality in Norfolk by combining housing and geographical data. He is interested in the linkages between the environment and economy, especially in a spatial context. He completed a PGDip in Ecology, also at UEA.

The Economics of Woodland Creation project aims to build England’s forest economic evidence base to help land managers and businesses make informed decisions on land use change and woodland management. This will be achieved through the collection and economic analysis of information on the financial implications of woodland creation options.
