ECoSYSTEM ECoLoGY & AGRoECoLoGY LAB
Below we provide examples of the type of outreach activities we are engaged with. The main goals are:
1) To help disseminate our research results.
2) To inform the society that funds our research.
3) To contribute to gaining the perspective that researchers may lose if they never take a walk outside their ivory towers.
