Response of Wetland Bird Populations to Neighboring Land Use Land Cover Change
Hometown: Charlottesville, Virginia
Department: Biology
Advisor: Matthias Leu
The impact of neighboring landscape change on species abundance in an unchanged target ecosystem is poorly understood. Insight into such potential spillover effects of land use land cover change could inform sustainable development choices. My honors thesis will quantify the potential relationships between national breeding bird population counts and land cover change data to defend my hypothesis that neighboring ecosystems affect each other's functioning and species abundance.
