Jake Weltzin (the big guy in the picture), PhD, University of Arizona (1998).
Population, community, and ecosystems ecology. His research is focused on the
identification of biotic and abiotic constraints on plant populations and communities, and on the structure and function of
ecosystems, under both current and potential future environments.
Interests include plant invasions, constraints on ecotones, and impacts of climate
change on communities and ecosystems. Click here for email,
