Our research focuses on ecosystem services (and disservices), predicting airborne pollen concentrations, and phenology. We quantify relevant processes with observational studies, experiments, remote sensing, statistical analyses, literature reviews and meta-analysis, epidemiological analyses, and the development of novel sensors. More information about ongoing research projects is available at: https://www.thekatzlab.com/research.html.
