Welcome to the Environmental Ecology Laboratory 日本語
About Us
Forests and the organisms provide essential benefits to society. However, these ecosystems are constantly influenced by disturbances, climate change, and other human-induced impacts. Our laboratory aims to advance biodiversity conservation and promote sustainable ecosystem management. We integrate field data, ecological theory, and cutting-edge technologies from ecology, environmental science, and conservation science to study biodiversity and unravel the dynamic processes that shape ecosystems.
