He has been the organizer for the North American Dendroecological Fieldweek (NADEF) since 2003. Education Speer received his bachelor's and master's degree in geosciences from the University of Arizona and his PhD from the University of Tennessee in geography. Recognition He received the Henry Cowles award from the American Association of Geographers (with Thomas W. Swetnam) for their paper on Pandora moth outbreaks in 2002. In 2008, he received the Richard L. Holmes Outstanding Service to Dendrochronology award from the Tree-Ring Society. He received the William E. Bennett Award for Extraordinary Contributions to Citizen Science from the National Center for Science and Civic Engagement in 2011. He received the Henry Cowles award from the American Association of Geographers a second time for his book Fundamentals of Tree-Ring Research published with the University of Arizona Press.
