The Zhang lab focuses on understanding and predicting how global changes and anthropogenic disturbances affect ecological dynamics at regional and global scales via scaling up individual behaviors (e.g., dispersal, resource competition) and interactions between organisms and environments.
We use an interdisciplinary approach integrating field observation/experiment and computational modeling to address fundamental and applied ecological questions across a range of spatial and temporal scales.
Some of our current projects investigate:
1. How do climate and anthropogenic factors drive species distribution shifts?
Relavant publications: Zhang et al. Environ. Res. Lett. 2019; Zhang et al. Ecol. Appl, 2021.
2. How to incorporate movement into modeling to project ecological dynamics at continental scale?
Relavant publications: Zhang et al. Ecol. Lett. 2017; Zhang et al. Trends Ecol. Evol. 2021; Zhang et al. Ecol Lett. 2021.
3. How to scale up individual stress responses to continental range suitability?
Relavant publications: Zhang et al. Am. Nat. 2020; Zhang et al. Ecology, 2021.
