Conservation Ecology Research Group
Our Conservation Ecology Research Group at North Carolina State University combines diverse approaches to the study of diversity, rarity, extinction and conservation. Within the group our research includes microcosms, large-scale experiments on corridors, studies of rarity and diversity at continental scales and diverse modeling approaches. We work in long-leaf pine savannas, tropical forests, mediterannean heathlands, hardwood forests and computer pixels and study butterflies, amphibians and reptiles, ants, plants, birds, and even a beaver or two. |
For publications in the lab group see, Nick's group, Rob's group or Kevin's group. See also our new projects, a Global Ant Survey, a project at Fort Bragg on multispecies conservation planning, and a project on transience in populations. See also our lab in the news: extinctions, conservation.

Not pictured are those who were too busy working on their theses (supposedly), Benoit Guenard, Judith Canner, Johnny Wilson or who had to go see a man about a dog, Nicole Thurgate, Gregor Yanega and Laura Vogel.
Opportunities in the lab group: Opportunties exist for postdocs, graduate students and undergraduate students to work with rare butterflies, ants, plants, and ideas. See opportunities in the Dunn, Gross or Haddad labs.
