Evolution and Ecology Research Projects

A selection of current projects in the Evolution and Ecology program

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

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

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

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

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

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
