معرفی
Dr. Sarah Greenwood is a Lecturer in Global Change Biology at the University of Stirling’s Biological and Environmental Sciences department. She holds expertise in global change ecology, focusing on climate change, pests, and ecosystem responses, particularly in forests. Her career includes roles as a Teaching Fellow in the University of Edinburgh’s MSc in Biodiversity, Wildlife, and Ecosystem Health (2016–2023), a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Stirling (2014–2017), and a PhD Candidate at the same institution (2010–2014).
Education includes a PhD in Biological and Environmental Sciences (University of Stirling, 2014), postdoctoral work on forest dynamics, and early career roles as a botanist/field surveyor (University of Aberdeen, 2010). Her research spans functional trait approaches, ecosystem resilience, and modeling to understand environmental change impacts. She advocates for forests as nature-based solutions and contributes to policy-relevant syntheses like Natura 2000 assessments.
- Research Interests:
- Functional trait analysis
- Ecosystem resilience to extreme events
- Data synthesis and modeling
- Forest-based nature solutions
- Policy-driven conservation strategies
Her work bridges ecology and policy, evidenced by contributions to climate-pollinator linkages, lynx reintroduction feasibility, and global soil temperature mapping. Collaborations include the Environmental Change and Extremes in Science & Society research programs, and the Ecosystem Change group.
