Climate and land-use change are altering the frequency and intensity of disturbance and climate extremes. Our Lab uses remote sensing and GIS, combined with field research methods, to address questions about the causes and consequences of disturbance and extreme events in forest landscapes.
Our Research
Our lab addresses questions about the causes and consequences of disturbance and extreme events in forest landscapes, mostly in tropical regions. Climate and land-use change are already altering the frequency and intensity of disturbance and climate extremes. To address these themes, we use a variety of tools including remote sensing and GIS, forest censuses, plant functional trait measurements, and socio-economic surveys.
