I am a geoecologist and ecological modeller, currently based at the Humboldt-University Berlin, Germany, and guest research at the Swiss Federal Research Institute WSL, Switzerland. My research is generally guided by ecological and biodiversity theory and integrates...
Simon Creer is a Professor of Molecular Ecology at Bangor University, North Wales, UK. He is interested in using molecular tools to address questions focusing on the ecology and evolution of a broad array of taxa across the tree of life. He is investigating relationships...
I am a professor in the School of Ecological and Environmental Sciences at East China Normal University in China. For the last few years, I have been working in diverse ecosystems and taxa and using different approaches to address some fundamental and emerging questions in...
My research spans a range of topics in global change and tropical conservation including climate change impacts, patterns of tropical biodiversity, urban ecology and endangered species conservation. To tackle conservation challenges locally and globally, my lab uses field-...
I’m a senior scientist at the Senckenberg Biodiversity and Climate Research Institute in Frankfurt, Germany. My primary research program involves the development of methods for building and using niche and distribution models to answer questions in evolution, ecology, and...
I’m an Associate Professor at Rutgers University (New Jersey, USA) in the Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Natural Resources. My research focuses on global change ecology and evolution in the ocean. I’m fascinated by the fact that the ocean contains 90% of the...
I am an ecologist trained in Portugal (BSc and MSc), and in the UK (PhD). I am now a researcher of the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), based in Montpellier at the Centre for Functional and Evolutionary Ecology (CEFE). My research interests revolve...
Flávia Costa (Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas da Amazônia, Brasil) I have been living and studying the Amazon forests for 22 years. My research interest is in understanding the organization, maintenance and dynamics of plant communities of the Amazon forests. This being a...
My scientific career is motivated by understanding what drives biological diversification and how biodiversity is maintained, or lost, through time. Although started from an interest in genetics and evolution, my research has been approaching practical questions related to...
I am an Associate Professor at Aarhus University (Denmark), and an Honorary Research Associate at the Royal Botanic Gardens Kew (UK). My passion is studying the diversity of land plants. What drives the diversification of this fascinating lineage? Why are some plant...
I am a marine ecologist ‘generalist’ with broad interdisciplinary research interests, and a background working on population dynamics, fisheries biology, and movement and migration of commercial species. Building on this broad background, I now focus on species and...
I am a botanist interested in many aspects of ecology and biogeography. My research is mainly focused on rain forest ecology in Amazonia, especially to clarify drivers of plant community composition, broad-scale floristic patterns and the evolutionary origin of Amazonian...
I am a conservation ecologist and my main research interests are in understanding how human activities – especially through the effects of climate change and land-use change – are influencing the structure of ecological communities. For the last few years, I have been...
My research is focused on understanding the relative roles of climate, physiology, and species’ interactions in range dynamics and changes in biodiversity across the earth. I use temporal analyses of biogeography, comparative traits-based analyses, and experimental...
I am a freshwater ecologist with a special interest in how species and communities respond to large-scale anthropogenic disturbances. I am currently a postdoctoral research associate in the School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences at the University of Washington, USA. My...
I am a Research Associate Professor at the University of Virginia in the Department of Environmental Sciences and Associate Director of Blandy Experimental Farm, a field station for ecological and environmental research in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States and...
I’ve been a round peg in a square hole for as long as I can remember, being fascinated by the broad sweep of society and global change, as well as by the minutiae of how species, communities and ecosystems respond to multiple threats. I’m an American-born ecologist and...
I am an Australian Research Council Fellow based at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia. My work focusses on the interactions between biodiversity and climate/climate change, previously looking at forests in tropical South American and temperate Europe, and...
My research covers mathematical theory, statistical methods, and empirical research, the emphasis being in linking theory to observational and experimental data. My long-term interests are in (i) the development of metapopulation theory and dispersal theory. Here the aim is...
I am an ecologist with a special interest in theoretical ecology. My research interests are in analysis, modeling, and theory related to the structure, dynamics, and functioning of ecological networks. The goal with my research is to provide detailed understanding of the...
