Project

Identifying tools and approaches to manage sustainable landscapes
My research focuses on how we can better manage multiple ecosystem services (the benefits people receive from ecosystems) across landscapes. In particular, I am interested in understanding how different policies and management actions influence how we access ecosystem services, and how we can use this information to better manage multiple ecosystem services simultaneously across landscapes. By identifying the policies and management actions that increase access to multiple ecosystem services, we can implement better strategies that promote sustainable landscapes where ecosystems can provide services to growing human populations.
