Jason J. Blackstock focused on evaluating the scientific, political and economic implications of climate engineering (geoengineering) concepts aimed at limiting the negative consequences of climate change caused by greenhouse gas emissions. More
Mats Bodin used adaptive dynamics techniques to study the evolutionary consequences of harvesting on maturation size and other inheritable traits in fish. More
Åke Brännström investigated evolution in ecological food webs and multi-species communities. More
Christopher Doll carried out research on the production of socioeconomic datasets from night-time light satellite imagery and how they can be combined with other data to help answer fundamental questions concerning sustainable development and the human dimensions of global change. More
Terence Fell carried out research focusing on the institutional mismatch between formal natural resource management policies and the informal rules in use in local community contexts. More
Jacob Johansson developed eco-evolutionary models for explaining fundamental patterns of variation in plant community structures. More
Erling Lundevaller focused on methods for demographic projections, including micro-simulation where the life course of each individual is followed. This allows, inter alia, the spatial-temporal aspects of fertility and mortality to be analyzed, allowing the future composition of populations to be predicted. More
Shuichi Matsumura worked on spatial modeling of interactions between anglers and fish populations. More
Rupert Mazzucco worked on computational models of non-allopatric speciation. More
Johan Östergren looked into eco-genetic modeling of human-induced evolution (i.e., through dams and fisheries) in anadromous fish in general, with a particular interest in sea trout. More
Upasna Sharma researched issues related to communication of uncertainty associated with climate forecasts and climate hazard warnings, particularly, how the target audience of these forecasts and warnings interpret, understand, and respond to uncertainty. More
Katsumasa Tanaka joined IIASA on conclusion of his Ph.D. in Geophysics at the International Max Planck Research School in Hamburgof. More
Edmar Teixeira focused on the enhancement of the FAO/IIASA Agro-ecological Zones (AEZ) methodology. More
Davnah Urbach, from Switzerland, focused on the evolution of mating traits in harvested fish populations. More
Rebecca Whitlock worked on the EU FishACE project to develop and apply eco-genetic modeling approaches that account for anthropogenic evoloution of sturgeon stocks in the Caspian Sea. More
