Central theory is abstracted in the policy sciences, which are simultaneously a comprehensive theory about the individual, society, and policy process and an analytic framework to guide research, inquiry, and problem solving. Theory development: Theory for interdisciplinary problem solving is well developed and grounded in practice. I have written about 360 pages, monographs, and books. Representative activities include koala conservation and management policy in Australia, a policy study aimed at improving carnivore conservation in the Rocky Mountains of the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and an analysis of ecosystem management policy in the Greater Yellowstone region.

I currently have several major interests: applied conservation, professional and organizational behavior in the natural resources arena, and analysis and development of policies and programs for conservation of species and ecosystems. My interests intersect in various ways in most of my projects and activities. This requires interdisciplinary problem solving in theory, research, practice, and teaching. My primary goal is to improve natural resource conservation at professional, scientific, organizational, management, and policy levels. She is a fellow of Pierson College and has an appointment at the Institution for Social and Policy Studies. Recent books include Averting Extinction: Reconstructing Endangered Species Recovery (1997), Carnivores in Ecosystems: The Yellowstone Experience (1999, co-edited), and Foundations of Natural Resources Policy and Management (2000, co-edited). She has worked in North America, Australia, Asia, and Central America. Her work involves building case studies, evaluating policies and programs, helping organizations to incorporate reliable science into management, helping students develop proficiency in the policy sciences method of research and problem solving, and working with a wide range of groups to improve conservation problem solving through workshops and other analytic exercises. She is currently researching conservation policy in Central America. She is interested in natural resource policy and management and has conducted research and applied projects, for example, in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem to develop ecosystem management policy and in Australia to evaluate endangered species policy (most recently for koalas). She has conducted field ecological and behavioral research on thirty-five mammals and other species. Professor Clark’s primary goal in her research and teaching is to improve conservation of species and ecosystems at professional, scientific, organizational, and policy levels.
