Environmental Modelling

Centre for Conservation Ecology & Environmental Change

All ecological populations and communities, and the environmental processes that underlie changes in this biodiversity vary over geographical space. Measuring and interpreting the spatial dynamics of biodiversity and the environment is a key step in understanding threats to biodiversity. To achieve this, the use of spatial analysis and modelling techniques, supported by GIS and remote sensing, underpins much of our research.
