Agriculture Biodiversity + Conservation Lab
Dr. Paul Galpern, Dr. Mindi Summers and their students and trainees at the Department of Biological Sciences University of Calgary, Alberta, Canada
Agriculture
We study the sustainable intensification of agriculture, and explore whether changes to landscape management can lead to mutually beneficial solutions for food, farmers, biodiversity, and climate.
Biodiversity
We love bees, beetles and other invertebrates, and research the ecosystem services supplied by these species.
Conservation
We study the theory and the practice of conservation at landscape scales, with a focus on prairie, mountain, and urban ecosystems in western Canada.
The ABC Lab is a collective project of Dr. Paul Galpern, Dr. Mindi Summers, and their students and trainees at University of Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
