Lindsey Christensen is an environmental scientist for CIRRUS and Entrix, two environmental consulting firms, and is finishing her position as a Research Scientist at the Natural Resource Ecology Laboratory (NREL), CSU. She is a current member of the Network for Science and Technology for Sustainability. Her work at CSU focuses on the primary and secondary effects of climate on mountain hydrological and ecological systems. Previously, Dr. Christensen was a Sustainability Systems Research Postdoctoral Fellow at the Center for Environmental Science and Policy at Stanford University. She received her Ph.D. in Ecology in 2001 at CSU where she studied the dynamics and sustainability of the Inner Mongolia grasslands, focusing on ecosystem responses to grazing and climate change. Her work throughout her scientific career has focused on large scale interactions of hydrological, ecological, and human systems. She has served on a science advisory council for the Nature Conservancy, helped teach university courses in California, Utah, and Colorado, and has volunteered for government and non-profit environmental organizations.
