Forest Ecology and Conservation group
Changing the landscape of conservation
About our work
Human population growth and resource consumption are placing enormous pressures on natural ecosystems. My group is interested in how and why the world’s forests are changing and using our research to inform conservation policy.
Our research fits into four broad themes:
- Laser scanning forest carbon
- Forest Biodiversity
- How forest are responding to global change
- What types of interventions work in conservation?
