He helps clients find the middle ground between the needs of natural resource protection and human population growth. Kemble's doctorate was in biospeleology, the study of cave ecology. His research has been published in Geology, one of the world's flagship peer-reviewed scientific journals. Two species have been named in his honor and he has discovered numerous new locations for rare and endangered species. Kemble is a licensed professional geoscientist and holds the applicable U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service permits for working with threatened and endangered karst species in the Austin San Antonio growth corridor.
