Humans have been modifying natural environments for millennia, leading to a deep co-evolution between social and natural systems. As a result, areas ...

Ecological inference requires integrating information across scales. This integration creates a complex spatial dependence structure that is most accurately represented by fully non-stationary models.

Hierarchical clustering based on bacterial growth patterns is closely aligned with classifications derived from genomic information and ecological data from geographical distribution. This strong ...

I am a conservation ecologist whose work focuses on applying principles of spatial, landscape, community, and restoration ecology to connect ecological patterns and processes across spatiotemporal ...

From this, they were able to derive ecological patterns and investigate how these change with the seasons. For example, ecosystems by rivers differ from those in the mountains, where phenological ...

Macrosystems science strives to integrate patterns and processes that span regional to continental scales. The scope of such research often necessitates the involvement of large interdisciplinary ...
