Earth Science and Ecology

Ben Dantzer

I have studied the behavior and physiology of wild animals in the Canadian Yukon, the Kalahari desert, and the wilds of southwestern Ohio or northern Michigan. I enjoy taking a longitudinal approach to my scientific questions where we study individual animals over long periods of time. This allows us to understand how animals respond to ...

While Antarctica is an icy, cold, desolate place today, 80 million years ago in the Late Cretaceous it was warm, forested and biogeographically connected to Australia and South America. What plants were growing in these forests, how diverse were they, and what was their role in the assembly of modern forests in the Southern Hemisphere ...

Abby Hutson

(I think I talk enough about my most interesting projects in other areas of this application, so I will not repeat them here) Before joining the University of Michigan, I spent all of my research career studying meteorology, specifically severe and tornadic thunderstorms. A majority of my research was done at at the storm-scale, or ...

Anders Kiledal

I use omics techniques to study Lake Erie cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cHABs) and work with collaborators from the medical school to study the effects of graft versus host disease on intestinal microbes following bone marrow transplant. One of my major projects is the Great Lakes Atlas of Multi-omics Research (GLAMR) database, which seeks to ...

Geoffrey Siwo

My research is driven by a strong belief that abstracting complex scientific problems into computational problems has the power to accelerate the speed of scientific discovery and change who, here and how scientific discoveries are made and translated into practical solutions. I apply this principle to integrate computational techniques such as machine learning and artificial ...

Fernando Garcia

Prof. Garcia’s research is about how the behaviors and interactions of individual particles influence the natural phenomena that we observe in nature. Many natural hazards can be modeled and studied in terms of the system of grains or particles that compose the hazard. Rock avalanches and debris flows are characterized by the collisions of individual ...

Michele Peruzzi

I work on the development of interpretable and scalable methods and software for the analysis of spatial data, with applications to ecology, environmental sciences, remote sensing, as well as “omics” multiplexed imaging data. I am primarily interested in three main areas: (1) methods development for spatial multivariate data; (2) scientific applications of Bayesian methods for ...

Jiaqi Li

Dr. Jiaqi Li’s research interests include industrial decarbonization of materials, such as concrete and hydrogen, for civil and energy infrastructure through the use and generation of renewable energy and carbon capture, utilization, and storage. His research uses in-house experimental results to validate modelling work and uses machine learning tools such as regression, clustering, network analysis, ...

Benjamin Goldstein

Benjamin Goldstein is Assistant Professor of Environment and Sustainability and head of the Sustainable Urban-Rural Futures (SURF) lab. The SURF Lab (www.surf-lab.ca) studies and emphasizes urban sustainability at multiple scales. Through his work at the SURF Lab, Benjamin helps understand how urban processes and urban form drive the consumption of materials and energy in cities ...
