I am a social scientist working at the multiple intersections of population and environment. I am interested in the human dimensions of environmental change, and the environmental causes and consequences of social change. My recent projects examine how social structures influence groundwater management at multiple scales (community to global; how social factors affect the adoption of irrigation technologies; how culture influences perceptions of the science, knowledge, and information used to make decisions about agricultural adaptations; and when, how, why, and where global change interacts with national, regional, and local social structures to encourage or constrain people’s decisions to migrate.
