Henry Li is a Gibbs Assistant Professor affiliated with Yale University, specializing in applied mathematics and environmental science. His research focuses on global forest dynamics, biodiversity-productivity relationships, climate impacts on tree traits, and the application of remote sensing in ecological modeling. He explores topics such as monodominant tree species expansion, forest carbon sequestration potential, and invasive species dynamics.
His work integrates computational models with field data to address challenges in conservation, climate change mitigation, and sustainable land use. Notable projects include studies on the Congo Basin's Gilbertiodendron dewevrei forests and the development of predictive models for deforestation risk in commodity supply chains.
Key contributions include mapping global tree density, analyzing biodiversity-productivity links, and investigating climatic controls on wood density and decomposition. His interdisciplinary approach bridges ecology, mathematics, and policy, aiming to inform environmental decision-making.
