Dr Alessandro Gimona

My research concerns assessing the consequences of land use change and climate change on ecosystem services and species distributions, to improve spatial planning. 

Active projects are on multiple landscape benefits and trade-offs, mapping of key ecosystem services, and the development of interactive tools that facilitate decision and participation by experts and non-experts.

I am also a member of the scientific steering  committee of the Ecosystem Services Partnership.

Professor Glenn Iason

My research is mainly on the ecology of herbivorous mammals, their impacts on plants and how plants defend themselves against herbivores and diseases.  He has experience of work with a broad range of animal species (hares and rabbits, African buffalo, deer, moose and domestic ruminants and invertebrates species) in a range of ecosystems including the Arctic, Boreal forests, moorland, African savanna and agricultural environments.

Dr Katrina Brown

My research focuses on animal-human relations and wellbeing as they are constituted together with particular environments.  A key aim of this work is to understand how the joint practices and behaviours of people and animals influence - and are influenced by – the production of knowledge, health and governance arrangements.
