Description

Austin Green is a postdoctoral researcher in the Department of Biology with the College of Science’s Science Research Initiative, or SRI program.  His specialty is using camera traps to monitor and capture image data of wildlife in wilderness areas. His research involves gathering this data to study wild animal behavior, their movement patterns, and how human behavior is impacting wildlife. Some of his research has suggested that climate change is making life harder for wildlife to adapt to urbanization, especially in hotter and dryer areas.  Austin hopes his research will help people understand the wildlife that live around us, and for better urban planning that accounts for the needs of local wildlife.
