Biography
Dr. Mouat is an arid lands geoecologist and landscape dynamics specialist with over 30 years experience as a research scientist. Pioneering techniques in using terrain correlation to discriminate vegetation and habitat (the subject of his dissertation) he has applied this hypothesis to land capability and condition assessment, vegetation and habitat mapping, and land degradation assessment. Land capability, condition, and degradation assessments were integral parts of programs that he supported such as EPA’s Environmental Monitoring and Assessment Program, the UN Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), and others.
Research Interest
