Welcome to the Cadotte urban biodiversity & ecosystem services (cubes) lab webpage


our work

biodiversity

Causes of biodiversity. We examine the mechanisms that influence the diversity of species in habitats and how human activities and species invasions alter biodiversity patterns.

ecosystems

Consequences of biodiversity. We evaluate the ways in which changes in biodiversity influence the functioning of ecosystems in natural and urban landscapes.

conservation

Preserving biodiversity. We examine how to conserve and manage natural and urban ecosystems to maximize biodiversity and the ecosystem services that all people benefit from.
