Seminar Series: Mark Lubell

Mark Lubell is a professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy at the University of California, Davis. His talk, titled "Collective Action and the Complex Environment" will cover a multi-pronged research agenda aimed at understanding the role of policy institutions and cooperate in solving complex environmental collective-action problems. Core themes and research questions will be illustrated with empirical research from water management in the San Francisco Bay and sustainable viticulture in California's wine country.

Lubell studies collective-action and cooperation in the context of environmental policy and management. His current research topics include watershed management, environmental behavior, sustainable agriculture, climate change policy, multi-generational public goods experiments, and agent-based models of cooperation.
