Goals and activities
CRES serves as an umbrella organization at Indiana University, to facilitate the common pursuit of the highest quality multidisciplinary research in environmental sciences across the School of Public and Environmental Affairs, the various departments of the College of Arts and Sciences, and other units in the IU system. This campus center based around the theme of environmental science reports to the IU Office of Vice Provost for Research (OVPR). It provides environmental scientists at IU a collaborative and supportive environment to develop multidisciplinary projects that enhance research productivity, external funding for their research, and recruitment of top graduate students.
IU researchers studying urban forests in Bloomington backyards
CRES affiliates Tom Evans and Burney Fischer along with colleagues are studying how interactions between people, their social and governmental institutions, and the environment influence the sustainability of urban ecosystems. The study includes a survey of urban land management in Bloomington.
The survey is aimed at gathering information about how area residents manage their lawns, trees, and other landscaped areas, with specific questions focused on decisions regarding tree plantings and removals. Evans, Fischer, and their colleagues will combine the data with satellite imagery, geographic information systems (GIS) analysis, and interviews to analyze the factors influencing the sustainability of urban forests in our area.
