Ian Ausprey

Dr. Ian Ausprey is an Assistant Professor in Texas A&M University's Department of Ecology and Conservation Biology. His research integrates community ecology, landscape patterns, and functional traits to study biodiversity responses to agricultural gradients, urbanization, and climate change.

The lab employs phylogenetic analyses and trait-based approaches to examine species sensitivities to anthropogenic disturbances. Key research areas include tropical bird communities, fire ecology impacts on avian populations, and conservation strategies for agricultural landscapes.
