Research
Christoph is a conservation scientist interested in understanding and comparing the effectiveness of efforts to protect and restore terrestrial ecosystems. Where do they occur? What do they cost? What difference do they make? He answers these questions using large spatial datasets, satellite imagery, and econometrics. His findings support donors, governments, NGOs, and individuals that work to stem the decline of biological diversity on this planet.
Christoph is currently studying land acquisitions for conservation, with projects in the U.S., Chile, and Colombia.
