In this project, we develop an eco-evolutionary vegetation model that can account for the adaptations of individual plants, plant species, and multi-species communities to climate change at multiple temporal and organizational scales.
We developed a new theory based on optimality principles to predict for the stomatal and biochemical responses of leaves to drying soil and air.
We developed a C++ numerical library for solving physiologically structured population models using seven different methods.
We are developing and applying coupled vegetation-water-climate models to assess the resilience of ecosystem services provided by intact and sustainably managed terrestrial ecosystems.
