Doctoral Dissertation Research: Entomology and Agricultural Improvement

在Pamela Smith教授的指导下，博士生Pierre-Etienne Stockland将探索词源学的发展，重点是入侵昆虫种群的生物学研究结果如何增强该州应对农业灾难的能力。该项目将在一篇博士论文中达到顶峰。农业灾害一直是人们研究较少的自然灾害类型。这项工作将有助于灾害研究不断发展的跨学科领域。从这个项目收集的数据可能会在哥伦比亚大学的学术公地上提供。

Under the supervision of Prof. Pamela Smith, Ph.D student Pierre-Etienne Stockland will explore the development of etymological science with a focus on how the results of biological research on invasive insect populations have enhanced the state's capacity to respond to agricultural disasters. The project will culminate in a doctoral dissertation. Agricultural disasters have been an understudied type of natural disasters. The work will contribute to the growing interdisciplinary field of disaster studies. The data collected from this project may be made available in the Academic Commons of Columbia University.
