Stanford University Explore Courses

Working with undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral students,Rodolfo Dirzo studies the evolutionary ecology of species interactions with an emphasis in tropical ecosystems. In addition, he explores how anthropgenic impacts (deforestation, habitat fragmentation, invasive species) affect ecological processes, such as species interactions. He uses his research experience to develop his course on Ecology, Field ecology and conservation and natural history.
