Dr. Basil Iannone

Associate Professor and Extension Specialist, Urban and Residential Landscape Ecology

Basil Iannone

The human population growth projected for Florida and elsewhere is likely to result in increased land use change and development, potentially leading to negative impacts on both the availability of important resources such as water and on the ability of remnant natural areas to function and provide ecosystem services. Basil Iannone’s research and extension programs utilize interdisciplinary approaches and collaborations with non-academic partners to address this complex issue.

The goal of his programs is to devise and promote strategies to: (1) mitigate the negative environmental impacts of current and future land development and (2) design, construct, and manage urban and residential landscapes to support greater levels of biodiversity and ecological functionality.
