Our research includes:
- Assessing the impact of land-use change on carbon and biodiversity using LiDAR and hyperspectral sensing
- Measuring carbon storage in forests using airborne and space-borne technologies
- Evaluating the success of carbon projects aimed at reducing deforestation in developing countries
- Researching the effects of introduced organisms on forest communities and developing control strategies
- Species distribution modelling to understand the effects on climate change on biological diversity and trait evolution
- Developing new biological scaling theories, and confirming their significance by statistical analyses of forest inventory data
- Simulation modelling to examine the responses of forests to environmental change
