Abstract

Walt Mueggler: Aspen Scientist Extraordinaire

Dale L. Bartos

Walter F. Mueggler passed away in Logan, Utah on September 4, 2019 at the age of 93. Most of his long and successful career was spent working for Forest Service Research in the Intermountain West. He epitomized the ethos of Forest Service Research, where he spent most of his career. In 1987 he retired after spending approximately 40 years with the agency. This long and productive career focused mainly on the ecology of mountain grasslands and aspen ecosystems. In addition, as Emeritus Scientist with the Rocky Mountain (formerly Intermountain) Research Station he volunteered on a regular basis for approximately 20 years. That time was spent at the Forestry Sciences Lab in Logan where he analyzed data archives and developed manuscripts so this work would become a part of natural resources literature.
