Research

We work in three areas that represent the triad of natural resource management …

Biodiversity Conservation
Conservation is an increasingly limited option in a human dominated world. Even so, it gives the greatest ‘bang-for-the-buck’ in protecting biodiversity and ecosystem services.

Ecosystem Restoration
Restoration is one of the most important forms of management in the modern era, in part, because a large fraction of existing habitats have already been degraded.

Ecological Design
Ecological design is a useful when we need to construct habitats that are less hostile to biodiversity, or to better balance ecosystem services that are needed by people.
