He is interested in regions in socio-economic transition and areas particularly vulnerable to future global change. Specifically, his interests are analysing changes in future land use, land cover and land management due to growing food and timber demand, evaluating sustainable adaptation options (such as irrigation efficiency improvements), identifying the tradeoffs between future cropland expansion, intensification and biodiversity protection, and improving the simulation of responses to climate change in land system modeling. His main research interests are the changes to land systems and how to achieve more sustainable use of land and ecosystems. Žiga Malek is an Assistant Professor in Land Use and Ecosystem Dynamics.
