An EconoTimes perspective

Luke Emerson

PhD Candidate, Deakin University

PhD Candidate, Deakin University Luke's research centres on understanding how the distribution, abundance, and behaviour of wildlife, particularly mammals, are influenced by various environmental factors. This research is of high importance given the persistent and dramatic environmental changes across the globe, largely due to human forces, which is impacting biological community dynamics and is resulting in loss of biodiversity and ecological functioning. Luke's research experiences to date have largely focused on arboreal marsupials and large carnivores.
