Modeling Extreme Risks in Ecology
Risk Analysis, 2012Extreme risks in ecology are typified by circumstances in which data are sporadic or unavailable, understanding is poor, and decisions are urgently needed. Expert judgments are pervasive and disagreements among experts are commonplace. We outline approaches to evaluating extreme risks in ecology that rely on stochastic simulation, with a particular ...

The ecological risks of transgenic plants.
Rivista di biologia, 2003Biotechnologies have been utilized "ante litteram" for thousands of years to produce food and drink and genetic engineering techniques have been widely applied to produce many compounds for human use, from insulin to other medicines. The debate on genetically modified (GM) organisms broke out all over the world only when GM crops were released into the

Two on-going projects I presented at HGI workshop exemplified my effort to utilize both analog and digital media to explore the aesthetics and ontology of Risk Ecology. Beyond the visualization of known or idealized conditions, we can also represent failure—imperfections, deformations, and counter-construction where risks and vulnerabilities are ...
