Gregory Kiker

Professor, Agricultural and Biological Engineering

Greg Kiker has thirty years of experience with simulation modeling of coupled human-natural systems including household decision-making, savanna ecology, deforestation, crop production and livestock/wildlife dynamics. His current research projects include environmental modeling, agent-based platforms and practical linkages of risk analysis, adaptive management and multi-criteria decision analysis. He has worked in the USA, Africa and Latin America in the use of simulation models for water and ecosystem management, savanna ecosystems, pastoralism, crop yield prediction, decision/risk analysis and climate change.
