Chris Kaiser-Bunbury is interested in the impact of humans on ecosystem functioning, and he's using a network approach to test theoretical and applied questions in different ecosystems, from remote tropical islands to intensively managed and designed environments in urban and semi-urban landscapes. Chris is a community & conservation/restoration ecologist who, for the last 20 years, has been using island ecosystems and network theory to address urgent conservation questions. A central part of his work aims to quantify the impact of humans on mutualistic interactions (e.g. pollination, seed dispersal) and their functions. He's particularly interested in harnessing the power of network analysis to determine biodiversity organisation and monitor changes over space and time. Equally, Chris finds it exciting to quantify detailed species-level interactions and to identify their roles in shaping ecosystem processes. Most of Chris' research is at the interface of empirical and theoretical ecology, applied community conservation, and more recently sociology and conservation.
I'm a co-founder of ConScience, the Conservation Science Hub at the University of Exeter
