Tom Hobbs

Professor Emeritus Tom Hobbs at Colorado State University is a leading authority on natural resource management and wildlife ecology. He is driven by a genuine interest in developing ecological models to gain new insight from data collected on animal populations, and his models are widely used to support decisions in wildlife management. He is particularly interested in understanding controls on population dynamics of large mammals in Western North America and Scandinavia. Over the past two decades, Tom Hobbs has been part of a long-term joint collaboration with SLU, which has contributed to SLU’s positive international ecology reputation, and resulted in a series of high-impact scientific publications. During his time in Uppsala, Grimsö and Umeå, he has had roles such as visiting professor, visiting research fellow, external reviewer and keynote speaker. In addition, he has held several highly appreciated doctoral courses.
