研究テーマ

My research focuses on land-use/cover changes that are taking place in the uplands of Southeast Asia. I am interested in historical changes from the late 1800s to the present day. I am especially interested in how farming systems in the uplands are changing and how external and internal pressures are influencing and mitigating these changes. Over the last year, my interest in this subject has expanded to include looking at the influences of global climate change on the Southeast Asia uplands, and also on feedbacks that happen as land-use/cover change in the uplands.
