Biography
Charlotte Reemts is an ecologist with The Nature Conservancy’s Texas Chapter, where she has studied ecosystems across Texas since 2005. She works in natural areas and working lands to evaluate whether land management is achieving its goals, test new management techniques, document the ecological health of sites, and monitor populations of rare, threatened, and endangered species. She works in grasslands, savannas, woodlands, and forests, including tallgrass and coastal prairies, oak-juniper woodlands, ponderosa pine forests, and longleaf pine forests. In those sites, she studies rare plants and birds, including golden-cheeked warblers, black-capped vireos, Tobusch fishhook cactus, Texas trailing phlox, and Texas snowbells. She also tests treatments for invasive plants, especially invasive bluestems.
Charlotte has a B.S. in Biology from Susquehanna University, an M.S. in Plant Biology and Ecology from Michigan State University, and a Ph.D. in Plant Biology from the University of Texas at Austin.
