Research Focus
Brady Mattsson develops and tests modeling approaches to answer questions in ecology and to inform sustainable management and conservation of wildlife. A main focus of his research is on migratory species, especially birds. He examines drivers of population dynamics and flows of associated ecosystem services within and between flyways. He also develops tools using collaborative decision analysis and tests their abillity to inform conservation and natural resource management.
