Julie A Hope
Research fellow at the University of Auckland, NZ working on the effects of various anthropogenic stressors on soft sediment benthic ecosystem function.
Cho-ying Huang
Cho-ying Huang is a professor in the Department of Geography at National Taiwan University. His research interests include global ecology, terrestrial biogeochemistry and remote sensing of the environment.
Xiaolei Huang
Professor of Entomology at the State Key Laboratory of Ecological Pest Control for Fujian and Taiwan Crops, Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University. Main research interests of Xiaolei Huang's lab include insect diversity, systematics, biogeography, behavior, species interactions. His lab focuses on different taxonomic groups (e.g. insect-symbiont, insect-plant, insect-insect) to understand ecology and evolution of the diversity of species interactions. He also works actively on some general issues including data sharing and open science in ecology and evolution, and trends of biological taxonomy. During the recent years, the lab has been establishing specimen collection and DNA barcode library of subtropical aphids and scale insects in China, as well as research platform for studying species interactions and insect ecology and evolution across different disciplines from field ecology to genomics.
Stephen P Hubbell
Distinguished Professor of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, UCLA, and Senior Staff Scientist, Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute; Founding Chair, National Council for Science and the Environment, Washington, D.C.; Co-founder, Center for Tropical Forest Science; Fellow, American Academy of Arts and Sciences: Fellow, American Association for the Advancement of Science; 2016 Laureate, International Prize in Biology, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science
Dezene PW Huber
In our lab we work on bark beetle functional genomics, understanding tree defenses against herbivores and pathogens, insect chemical ecology, and insect biodiversity.
We conduct our research across multiple scales and we use available tools – established and cutting-edge – to search for answers to complex entomological and ecological questions.
Falk Huettmann
Falk grew up in Germany, got a M.Sc. in Forestry from Universities, Goettingen, Freiburg and Munich with a thesis at NISK/Norway on digital image processing of trees affected by acid rain. He then worked at the EU with a Robert Schuman Scholarship of the European Parliament in Luxemburg, and with a NGO in Bruxelles. In 2001 he got a PhD from the ACWERN at the University of New Brunswick (UNB) in Eastern Canada on pelagic seabirds, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and data. His postdoc was with the Center of Wildlife Ecology at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver about Marbled Murrelets. He then got a Killam Scholarship with the University of Calgary working on Grizzly Bear habitat future models in the Rocky Mountains.
In 2002 he became a Professor of Wildlife Ecology in his EWHALE lab with the University of Alaska-Fairbanks. Falk works with his students world-wide on landscapes, oceans and the atmosphere focusing on the conservation of biodiversity and habitats. He has over 350 publications, including 9 books and many Open Access datasets and metadata on over 2000 species
Daniel F Hughes
Dr. Daniel Hughes is an Assistant Professor of Biology at Coe College, where he studies how organisms, species, and entire communities respond to change, both in the past and present. His research begins with natural history observations and then leverages comparative approaches from diverse fields to study ecological and evolutionary processes, mostly in reptiles and amphibians. Dr. Hughes' work stems from the interrelated aims of tracking the impacts of global changes and improving the conservation of species.
Izwandy Idris
Dr. Izwandy Idris is Head of the South China Sea Repository and Reference Centre (RRC) within the Institute of Oceanography and Environment at the Universiti Malaysia Terengganu.
His research interests include the systematics (taxonomy), biology, and ecology of marine invertebrates, with in-depth works on the marine worm (Annelida: Polychaeta). Dr. Idris' research group works on several aspects including small-scale biogeography in coastal and estuary, biofouling ecology, biology, and ecology of commercially related species for sustainable application. His group also has started taking an interest in deep-sea polychaetes.
The overarching objectives of Dr. Idris' research group is to systematically catalogue the marine invertebrate diversity in Malaysia and to apply the knowledge on the ecological and biological requirements of the species for the betterment of people through economic empowerment, health, and the environment in a sustainable manner.
Rodolfo Jaffé
I`m interested in inter-disciplinary approaches, comprising population and community ecology, genomics and spatial statistics, to understand how the alteration of natural habitats influences biodiversity and the provision of ecosystem services.
Juan P Jaramillo-Correa
Dr. Juan P Jaramillo-Correa is Investigador titular (Associate Professor) at the Insituto de Ecología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.
His scientific interests address evolutionary questions that seek to answer how biological diversity originates and is maintained.
Michael A Jenkins
I am a Professor of Forest Ecology in the Department of Forestry and Natural Resources at Purdue University. Previously, I was a vegetation ecologist with the National Park Service for ten years. My research focuses on the effects of disturbance and invasive species on forests ecosystems. My scale of focus ranges from the population to the landscape scale and I work with data from both long-term plot networks and field experiments.
Paul C Jepson
The Director of the Integrated Plant Protection Center at Oregon State University and Professor in the Department of Environmental and Molecular Toxicology, State IPM Coordinator for Oregon and Associate Director of the Western IPM Center. Leads an international research and extension program in agriculture, leading to a sustainable intensification of production that contributes to food security.
