Research
Publications

Mike is an environmental psychologist whose research is focused on scenic beauty and aesthetics of the natural world, environmental visualization and geographic information systems, and sustainability planning. He is also quite interested in outdoor recreation, visual perception, human emotional processing, and decision making. Prior to coming to UBC, Mike was a children’s counselor working with the Tohono O’odham nation in southern Arizona. He has been involved in a number of interdisciplinary research projects focused on: 1) public involvement in sustainable ecosystem planning efforts, 2) the projection of future forest conditions according to economic, ecological and social indicators of sustainability, 3) the management of spatial and temporal data at a scale required for landscape planning, and 4) distributed artificial intelligence modeling of human/landscape interactions with specific attention to issues of conflict in outdoor recreation and tourism.
