The overall aim of our research is to develop statistical and modeling tools to improve our ability to understand vegetation patterns and to anticipate changes in those patterns.

Ecological Modeling

Ecological models are invaluable tools that allow ecologists to integrate knowledge about how ecosystems work in order to make reliable predictions under different scenarios. We aim to develop process-based eco-hydrological models of forest functioning and dynamics at scales from stands to landscapes.

Ecological Statistics

To describe and explain of the observed vegetation patterns at several scales we need statistical methods tailored to answer specific research questions. We aim to develop, test, and compare statistical methods for the analysis of vegetation structure, composition and dynamics.
