Dr. Ryan Danby

I obtained my Bachelor카지노 게임 컬렉션™s Degree (Hons.) from the 카지노게임사이트 of Waterloo카지노 게임 컬렉션™s interdisciplinary program in Environment and Resource Studies in 1993. Following graduation I was employed full-time as a consulting analyst on several waste management projects and environmental planning initiatives across southwestern Ontario. I was able to take a hiatus from work during this period to pursue a Master카지노 게임 컬렉션™s degree in Geography and Environmental Studies at Wilfrid Laurier 카지노게임사이트, which I completed in 1999. I began doctoral studies in Environmental Biology and Ecology at the 카지노게임사이트 of Alberta in Edmonton in 2000. I completed my dissertation in 2006 and remained in Edmonton as a post-doctoral fellow on the International Polar Year and as a lecturer in the Department of Biological Sciences. I came to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s in 2008.

Research Interests:

My research interests lie at the interface of ecology and geography and my work draws upon and contributes to the fields of biogeography, landscape ecology, and conservation biology. The central focus of my research is the study of patterns and processes of habitat change and vegetation dynamics at the landscape scale, especially in Arctic and alpine environments. I am also interested in the implications of this change for resource management, particularly in protected areas. I use a wide range of methods and techniques, including dendrochronology, remote sensing, GIS and spatial analysis, species distribution modeling, historical ecology, and plant community analysis. Fieldwork figures prominently in my work.
