Brown, Gardner

Professor Emeritus Gardner Brown’s research focus has been in the area of renewable resources, models including predator-prey relations, meta-populations, and antibiotics. He has had an enduring interest in endangered populations and in non-market valuation, including valuations of changes in ecosystems due to global climate change. His most recent research interest is the implications of ecosystem natural non-convexities for managing non-market ecosystem services.
