Research
areas at LEML include: Landscape
Ecology, Urban Ecology, Ecological Modeling,
and Sustainability Science.
Our current research projects focus on: effects of landscape pattern on
population/ecosystem processes, urbanization and its ecological
consequences, biodiversity and ecosystem functioning, and land change
science.
Our research has involved a variety of ecosystems
from North America to China. While the geographic idiosyncracy
of ecology must be recognized, it is research questions that drive our
studies. Our research approaches combine theoretical and
empirical
methods, with an emphasis on the use of modeling, spatial
statistics, GIS, and remote sensing.
