Oliver is Professor of Tropical Ecology in the School of Geography. Oliver's research focuses on understanding the dynamics of carbon and biodiversity across the world’s tropical forests and how these alter with changing climate. To do this, Oliver leads a team of more than 100 researchers in Leeds, across South America, and elsewhere, involved in the long-term and detailed monitoring of tropical ecosystems.
