About the research

How do organismal form and function scale to influence biodiversity and ecosystem functioning under climate change?

Read the full research overview

The lab develops general models of biological scaling laws and empirically measures organismal traits to explain form, function, and diversity. Researchers apply scaling theory, physiological and trait-based techniques, and big data analyses to assess macroecological drivers of diversity across biogeographic gradients. Projects integrate theory, informatics infrastructure, and field measurements to forecast how climate change alters forest distribution, biodiversity, and ecosystem functioning. The group uses integrative computation and visualization tools to analyze large ecological datasets and to build predictive frameworks for community and large-scale ecology.
