Congrats to Lauren Phillips, PhD!
Welcome to Dr. Tom Albright's 
Laboratory for Conservation Biogeography in the Department of Geography at the University of Nevada, Reno!

Our lab's work focuses on problems of conservation, sustainability, and environmental justice in a variety of ecosystems, including urban areas. Responding to the challenges of climate change is a central theme, with many projects exploring its consequences and identifying approaches to adaptation and resilience, and others exploring approaches to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.  

 

We employ a variety of approaches to collecting and analyzing data, including remote sensing, environmental sensors, GIS, spatial analysis, statistical and mechanistic modeling, and survey work. 

In addition to research, we highly value teaching and learning, contributing to policy discussions, communicating science, collaborating with community groups, and diversity/inclusion in what we do.
