The department's research programs are unusual in the breadth of interdisciplinary
approaches that are brought to bear on solving environmental and policy problems.
Frequent interaction between field ecologists, theoreticians, economists and social
scientists has led to many exciting research developments. The broad range of
expertise in the department and elsewhere on campus have led to exciting
cross-disciplinary programs, such as integrated watershed-scale analyses of both
environmental problems and public policy. The department houses large research groups
in watershed science, remote sensing of the environment, lake ecology (limnology),
theoretical ecology, and biodiversity.
