Global Environmental Change Research Group

Faculty Members of the
Global Environmental Change Research Group

The Global Environmental Research Group was initiated in 2001 as a result of funding provided by The University of Tennessee ("President's Initiative"). A primary mission is to improve interdisciplinary research across departments at The University of Tennessee and to provide students opportunities for research on critical problems of global environmental change. Faculty from three departments are currently participating: Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Earth and Planetary Sciences, and Geography. Research is being undertaken on land and at sea, internationally (Bahamas, Costa Rica, USA, Norway, and Dominican Republic), as well as regionally and more locally in Tennessee. Involvement of K-12 teachers and other forms of public outreach are also used to communicate the results of our work, as well as to address the need for better communication of global change research to the general public.
