A lab that explores how forests and green spaces work across multiple levels, from microorganisms to trees.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring how forests work across levels, from microorganisms to trees
The Green Space Environment Informatics Lab studies the organisms that make up forests and green spaces and the interactions among them.
Combining field observations and experiments, molecular ecological analysis, and statistical analysis and simulation, the lab aims to clarify the complex workings of ecosystems.
The lab aims to link information obtained from different groups and levels of organisms, such as plants and microorganisms, and to understand as a whole the processes by which ecosystems change.
The lab welcomes students and postdocs to join, and also welcomes lab visits booked in advance by email.
