About
Richard is a Postdoctoral researcher at the University of Würzburg and the German Aerospace Center (DLR). His research is conducted on the basis of spatially explicit urban ecology and focuses on the spatiotemporal characterization of urban areas employing geoinformatics. His goal is to detect global regularities as well as fundamental differences between cities, aiming to find the underlying properties driving the evolution of urban systems. Richard has published diverse peer-reviewed scientific papers focused on urban spatial development, the urban heat island effect, urban green infrastructure and land cover change (e.g., deforestation). He has collaborated with research groups from Argentina, Chile, Colombia, India, Finland, Germany, Mexico, Spain and the United States, in projects focused on land use change, climate change, vegetation monitoring, spatial patterns of urbanization, land planning, and evaluation of the provision of ecosystem services, among others.
