TLSELab Welcome
to the Tropical Large-Scale Ecology Lab (TLSELab) at the
University of Puerto Rico-Rio Piedras. Tropical landscapes
are complex,
and
we are interested in understanding the origin of this complexity,
as well as its consequences for the diversity and
functioning of ecosystems. We
explicitly recognize
the
role
of space in
the organization of ecosytems whether at local or regional
scales, and the possibility for interactions among them
largely facilitaded by the increasing influence of humans
on landscpes
Contribute to the theoretical foundations of the field of Landscape Ecology and Macroecology. Contribute tools and techniques for the study of landscapes, ecosytem processes, and plant and animal assemblages at large scales. Apply this knowledge to the conservation, management, and restoration of tropical landscapes. . |
