Dr. James T. Cronin is currently working as a Professor in the Department of Department of Biological Sciences, Louisiana State University , USA. His research interests includes Biogeography of plant invasions, Causes for predator-prey population cycles,Density-dependent dispersal and predator-prey population dynamics,Role of habitat fragmentation and landscape heterogeneity on predator-prey spatial and temporal population dynamics. He is serving as an editorial member and reviewer of several international reputed journals. Dr. James T. Cronin is the member of many international affiliations. He has successfully completed his Administrative responsibilities. He has authored of many research articles/books related to Biogeography of plant invasions, Causes for predator-prey population cycles,Density-dependent dispersal and predator-prey population dynamics,Role of habitat fragmentation and landscape heterogeneity on predator-prey spatial and temporal population dynamics.
My research interests center on the ecology and evolution of plant-herbivore-natural enemy interactions. This stems from both an applied interest in the biological control of plant pests by natural enemies and a theoretical interest in the behavior, population dynamics and persistence of species comprising ecological communities. In my research program, I advocate a spatial approach to understanding these trophic interactions.
