About me
Dr. Yi Zou (邹怡) is an Associate Professor in the Department of Health and Environmental Sciences at XJTLU. He is an ecologist and entomologist studying conservation biology, landscape ecology and ecosystem services in agricultural and forest ecosystems. He is particularly interested in how changing landscapes affect arthropod diversity, pollination and biological pest control services. His research interests also include how to effectively measure biodiversity at different dimensions by model simulation and empirical studies. Yi is an associate editor of Journal of Applied Ecology.
