2) The transdisciplinary problems of land transformation for sustainabiliy
and the preservation of biophysical diversity in populated landscapes.
3) The importance and utility of qualitative distinctions and aesthetic

1) interactive dynamics between land use and transportation decisions,
and the development of integrated modeling tools for policy analysis;
2) emergent properties of complex urban systems; and 3) the social welfare/distributional
equity effects of transportation policies---in other words, do transportation
policies have the (unintended) consequence of redistributing well-being/wealth/welfare
among individuals in an urban system in ways that are particularly equitable
or inequitable? |

Environmental planning and urban ecology; more specifically, how can socially
and politically relevant measures of urban settlement be integrated into
environmental studies and what is most appropriate basis of evaluation
for the condition of urban natural systems.

Applications of GIS
for the investigation of the relationship between urban structure and
function and health-related behaviors. A substantial body of knowledge
indicates there is a relationship between location and health; exactly
how are the properties of urban environments related to such health factors
as obesity, inactivity, and fast food onsumption? |

Planning and diversity; namely identifying:
1) the challenges of accommodating and recognizing cultural difference;
2) limiting norms of current methods and practice; and 3) potential
challenges to and methods for dealing with controversies resulting from
explicit recognition of difference.

I am interested on understanding
the relationship between sustainability and urban form. I aim to investigate
urban sustainability in the context of the Greater Seattle Area (GSA).
I propose to answer the following question: Are there urban forms on the
landscape that could be considered sustainable according to a set of indicators
that are spatially referenced? Although this study design is exploratory,
it is based upon three somewhat loosely defined research hypotheses: 1.
Urban sustainability varies at the neighborhood scale across the GSA,
2. There are areas that satisfy sustainability goals to a significant
degree both individually and in combination. 3. There are recognizable
aspects of urban form shared by the most sustainable areas. |
