PETER MARCHAND is a field biologist trained in both earth sciences and systems ecology at the University of New Hampshire. He earned his doctorate investigating physiological limits to tree growth at timberline and then devoted much of his career to the study of diverse forest, tundra, and, more recently, desert ecosystems, traveling widely throughout North America and Europe. His research interests often focus on winter phenomena; his book Life in the Cold (University Press of New England) is now in its third edition. But autumn, he says, has always been his favorite season for the fascinating changes taking place at this time of year. Currently a Visiting Professor at Colorado College and a frequent contributor to Natural History, Peter has conducted field research and shared his love of science with others for over 20 years. He calls Arizona home now (when I'm not somewhere else), where he ranges from low deserts to high mountain tops following his passion for the study of life at the extremes
