Profile

Over his twenty seven years at Michigan State University, Stuart H. Gage has consistently provided excellence across the breadth of his assignments in research, academic instruction and public outreach. His efforts are founded on a solid academic foundation, with direct implications for the citizens of this state and the global community.

AdProf. Gage's multidisciplinary research program in Computational Ecology and Visualization addresses complex questions of organism distribution in space and time. Within this role, he has addressed such diverse issues as management of gypsy moth invasion into the Midwest, corn phenology across the United States, and more recently patterns of human development in Michigan and beyond. As an entomologist, his contributions have ranged from modelling the effects of environmental conditions on pest and natural enemy ecology, to examinations of atmospheric transport of insects. However, his is interested in much more than entomology and his skills in analysis of vast datasets comprising biological and geographical information have led to development of cutting-edge computational methods for prediction of biological events across the United States.

His collaborations with the San Diego Supercomputer Center in California connect biological data with computational power, leading to regional ecosystem modelling and acoustic analysis. This unique research program puts AdProf. Gage at the forefront of new approaches to assess ecosystem health and predict future pressures on our natural resources. These techniques are now being used in New Zealand under his direction.

AdProf. Gage is a world leader in research, training, and delivery of complex systems analysis. His program reflects his standards of excellence and critical thinking about how science can be used to address the current and future challenges of managing society's impact on our environment.
