I am broadly interested in agroecosystem multifunctionality and management implications and have explored the complexity of human-nature interactions in multiple social-ecological systems. I currently collaborate with researchers in the Faculty of Forestry and the Faculty of Land and Food Systems to develop methods and data for spatially targeting restoration and quantifying benefits for the PERCS project.
1. Accelerated Code Implementation of High-Performance Energy Efficient and Carbon-Neutral Modular Buildings
2. Enhancing the Resilience of Residential Buildings in British Columbia to Overheating and Wildfire Smoke: Optimal Design and Mitigation Strategies
The overarching goal of our project is to understand how to co-produce nature-based solutions to support both human health and environmental justice as our cities transform toward resilient futures. Over the next two years, we will advance our goal through three project objectives:
(1) Analyze climate change vulnerability across three Vancouver neighborhoods, centring the lived experiences and adaptation strategies of community members
(2) Examine how nature-based solutions can reduce vulnerability and support community-based adaptive strategies
Nature-based decarbonization opportunities for the mining and forest sectors.
