Research Interests


Cameron’s current research focuses on synthesizing research conducted at the Jornada Basin long-term ecological research site. He hopes to use cross-scale, multi-taxa linkages to advance understanding of ecological state transitions, as well as the responses of dryland ecosystems to climate and land-use change.
