Project Activities
The first four projects unfold EEP's core research agenda, while the last two projects are smaller initiative in collaboration with the Advanced Systems Analysis (ASA) Program and the Ecosystems Services and Management (ESM) Program. Together, these six projects show how innovative methods inspired by the dynamics of living systems can invigorate and integrate key facets of modern applied systems analysis.
Eco-evolutionary Dynamics of Living Systems
This project will improve models for assessing the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of living systems to allow a better understanding of human-induced impacts on the biosphere More
Integrated Assessment of Fisheries
This project is developing tools that integrate the biological, social, and economic aspects of fishery systems to help create management systems that promote sustainable fisheries More
Evolutionarily Sustainable Consumption
The evolutionary consequences of fishing affect a host of heritable traits in fish populations, and IIASA researchers are developing a toolkit to allow scientists to assess these impacts. More
Equitable Governance of Common Goods
A project to improve the regulation of open resources by translating successful small-scale, bottom-up regulations to large-scale, top-down regulations More
Eco-evolutionary Vegetation Modeling and Management
The development of eco-evolutionary models will allow scientists to better understand how plants around the world respond to climate change and disturbances such as fires and grazing. More
Systemic Risk and Network Dynamics
This project will deepen the understanding of cascading failure in networks and develop ways to lessen the risks of collapse and improve recovery. More
