Dr. Jon Wang, an Assistant Professor in the School of Biological Sciences here at the U, manages the Dynamic Carbon and Ecosystems Lab, or DYCE Lab. He has access to high-resolution airborne laser scanning data to map forests across the world to measure to set benchmarks for that data and monitor for changes. Wang is interested in how climate change and human activity are rapidly transforming terrestrial ecosystems such as with wildfire, timber harvest, urbanization, and drought. Dr. Jon Wang’s work could be crucial to understand how forests are changing as the world looks to applying nature-based climate solutions in the coming years. wilkescenter.utah.edu/podcast/23-monitoring-forests-as-they-change/
