We conduct research, graduate education, and outreach, primarily in forested ecosystems.
Most of our work involves investigating spatial patterns and ecological processes,
often at broad scales.
Work done in our laboratory seeks to understand the basis of sustainable forest
landscapes. Projects includes forest ecosystem field studies, forest landscape
modeling of land use and climate change effects, GIS and remote sensing applications,
analysis of the effects of forest management practices and natural disturbances on
ecosystems, the influence of landscape-scale factors on wildlife populations, and
effects of land use and historical factors on current landscape patterns and
ecosystem processes.
For more specific information about our work, please visit our
projects and people web
pages. Lab publications, most available to download in PDF format,
can be found on our publications
page. Also see our landscape ecology page for more
information on the discipline of landscape ecology in general and
on landscape ecology instruction at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Prospective graduate students should visit our
graduate study page for more information
regarding research opportunities in our lab, as well as links for graduate
admission and visiting the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
