Dr Luke Collins Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Ecology, Environment & Evolution

I have a broad range of research interests related to disturbance ecology and ecosystem management. My current research focuses on the effect of global changes (e.g. elevated carbon dioxide, changing climate, land-use change) on vegetation communities, and how this will alter factors such as ecosystem flammability and post-fire ecosystem recovery. I am also interested in how fire regimes affect plant and animal communities, and factors that may cause spatial variability in these effects across landscapes (e.g. topography, timber harvesting).
