Through the Swearer Center program, eight students affiliated with IBES will conduct community-engaged research spanning environmental justice, food sovereignty, conservation biology, and Indigenous land stewardship.

A study by Daniel Perret PhD '21, IBES Professor Dov Sax, and Margaret Evans of the University of Arizona won the ESA's George Mercer Award for an Outstanding Paper by An Early-Career Researcher.

IBES Professor Dov Sax coauthored this article, which highlights why ecology's space-for-time substitution method can be misleading, and makes suggestions for improving the reliability of ecological forecasts.
