Wildlife Biology and Sustainable Landscape (WILD)

This group is aimed to direct our collective expertise, experiences, and  interest to support the Government’s commitment to SDGs, particularly  Goals 13, 14, and 15. We believe that understanding the biology of wild  flora and fauna in a changing landscape and seascape is crucial to  ensure that development activities do not surpass nature’s carrying and  restoring capacity.

Research Focus

 
  1. Conservation genetics of critically endangered mammals in fragmented landscapes of Sumatra and Java
  2. Metagenomics studies to detect positive selection under different landscape management systems.
  3. Assessments of landscapes’ carrying capacity using various parameters in relation to human – wildlife conflict, wildlife ecosystem, and sustainable development.
  4. Resilience of lifeforms, including invasive species, and emerging diseases in the process of urbanization and climate change.
  5. Behaviour interaction in endangered large mammals.
  6. Urban exotic and invasive species
  7. Biodiversity and ecosystem services
  8. Life cycle assessment
