Christopher Johnson

Christopher Johnson serves as an Assistant Professor of Instruction in the Department of Biology, Health, and the Environment at the College of Sciences, University of Texas at San Antonio. His academic work bridges ecological theory with practical environmental applications, focusing on organismal responses to anthropogenic and natural environmental shifts.

His educational foundation includes:

• Ph.D. in Biology from Texas Tech University
• M.S. in Environment and Natural Resources from Ohio State University
• B.S. in Biology from Francis Marion University

Dr. Johnson's research explores critical intersections of behavioral ecology and environmental dynamics, particularly how information landscapes shape ecological responses. His investigations into scaling individual behavioral adaptations to community-level effects address pressing conservation challenges in wildlife ecology. Current emphases include quantifying threshold responses to habitat fragmentation and modeling information flow in altered ecosystems.

Teaching responsibilities encompass Behavioral Response to Environmental Change, Ecology of Information and Information Landscapes, Scaling Individual Response to Community Effects, and Wildlife Ecology, reflecting his integrated approach to environmental science education.
