RESEARCH AREAS

I have three main areas of specialization  (1) land use land cover change analysis which questions how economic development, accessibility and protected areas impact changes in land cover and land use within specific regions of the world, (2) techniques in remote sensing, where research relates to improved techniques for the analysis and incorporation of remote sensing into geostatistical and modeling studies of land use land cover change and (3) modeling the effects of climate change and changing climate variability on agricultural systems, which asks the question how will climate change impact our existing agricultural regions.
