Personal profile
Research
I am an ecologist trying to understand (1) which properties of species communities ensure services such as biological control of pests, pollination of crops, persistence of species of conservation interest and adequate food production are delivered to humans, and (2) how changes to the way we use the land affect these communities and the services they provide to us.
