Research Interests

I am interested in understanding how human activities impact tropical forest biodiversity, and the ecosystem services and functions that biodiversity delivers. My work focusses on the Brazilian Amazon, where I have been working since 1998.

I am a co-founder of the Sustainable Amazon Nework (Rede Amazônia Sustentável), which brings together scientists, conservation practitioners and local stakeholders to further our understanding of the environmental and socio-economic trade-offs in the world's largest remaining expanse of tropical forest.  

I am a Trustee of WWF-UK, Lead author & member of UN’s Science Panel for the Amazon, and Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Applied Ecology.

Teaching

I teach on a variety of modules within the Ecology and Conservation and Geography undergraduate and post-graduate programmes, using my expertise in tropical forests to illustrate the many tensions between economic development and conservation. I also teach and supervise students on post-graduate courses at the Federal University of Pará, Brazil.
