Andrew Rogers
My primary research interests include species' use of highly transformed habitats, conservation management in human dominated landscapes and habitat restoration. I am particularly interested in the impact of invasive species on native communtiy assembly and function. Recent work has included quantifying novel ecosystem support of native species, invasive species distribution mapping, and resource use by scavengers in anthropogenically modified habitats.

I am currently working on modeling bird distributions under future climate change scenarios.
