Research Interests: My research program focuses broadly upon LandUse and LandCover Change (LULCC) and the techniques and theoretical methods that allow one to explore the spatio-temporal dynamics of change, including, Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing, Complexity Theory, and Dynamic Spatial Simulation Models. I am currently working on projects in Ecuador, Thailand, and the Florida Bay.
