Landscape Ecology, Modeling, & Spatial Dynamics |
William Clark |
Estimation of population parameters from recapture data, integration of dispersal behavior into metapopulation modeling, and the effects of habitat fragmentation on predators. |
Brent Danielson |
Effects of complex landscapes on the dynamics and structure of animal communities. |
Diane Debinski |
Current research includes studies of: 1)biogeographic analysis of species/habitat relationships using use of GIS and remotely sensed data, 2) restoration of prairie communities, 3) habitat fragmentation in agroecosystems, and 4) global climate change. |
John Downing |
Limnology, aquatic ecology, biogeochemistry, restoration ecology, landscape ecology and conservation of aquatic biodiversity. Watershed studies analyze the influence of the chemical and physical characteristics of aquatic ecosystems on phytoplankton, zooplankton, benthos and fish. Conservation studies emphasize freshwater mussels. |
Kirk Moloney |
Research interests include the spatial dynamics of ecological systems; relationships between ecological pattern and process; disturbance ecology; ecology of invasions; and the application of ecological knowledge in the process of restoration. |
Stephen Proulx |
Mathematical modeling of evolutionary and ecological processes, including genetic networks, gene families, mating systems, sex allocation, host-pathogen interactions, and niche breadth. |
James Raich |
Terrestrial ecosystems ecology; plant-soil-atmosphere carbon exchanges; nutrient cycling; human and environmental controls over ecosystem processes within forests, grasslands, and agricultural landscapes. |
