His research focuses on landscape connectivity, ecological thresholds, temporal responses to landscape change, and conservation planning. Recent work explores the interactions between landscape structure, ecosystem services, human well-being, and environmental policy effectiveness in multifunctional landscapes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jean Paul Metzger uses modelling and scenario approaches to bridge landscape-level processes with restoration efforts. He has an extensive publication record, with over 200 papers in prestigious journals such as Science, Nature, Landscape Ecology, and Journal of Applied Ecology, with approximately 14,400 citations and an H-index of 55.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Research interests&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Urban Landscape;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ecosystem Services;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Health;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Synthesis Science;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transdisciplinarity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Project: Relations between ecosystem services and human health in cities &#8211; challenges and opportunities for collaboration<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I seek to understand how the quantity, spatial distribution, and quality of green areas in cities are related to the provision of multiple ecosystem services, which in turn affect people&#8217;s health. The ultimate goal is to stimulate collaboration between Montpellier and Brazilian researchers on issues related to sustainability and health in cities, with a transdisciplinary and synthesis approach, focusing on the co-creation of nature-based solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-content-box is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why a fellowship in Montpellier?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During my stay in Montpellier, I would like to get to know better a large and qualified community working on issues of (urban) sustainability and biodiversity, and to identify possible partners to be involved in ongoing research, or to promote comparative research, or even to set up new collaborative projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>During his fellowship in Montpellier, Jean Paul Metzger was hosted by two research units: the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fondationbiodiversite.fr\/en\/about-the-foundation\/le-cesab\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.fondationbiodiversite.fr\/en\/about-the-foundation\/le-cesab\/\">Centre for the Synthesis and Analysis of Biodiversity (CESAB)<\/a> et des <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cefe.cnrs.fr\/en\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.cefe.cnrs.fr\/en\/\">Centre for Functional and Evolutionary Ecology (CEFE)<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Services:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jean Paul Metzger is the director of <a href=\"https:\/\/biotasintese.iea.usp.br\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/biotasintese.iea.usp.br\/\">Biota Synthesis<\/a>, the &#8220;Nucleus of Analysis and Synthesis of Nature-based Solutions&#8221;, which will support the State of S\u00e3o Paulo in the development of socio-environmental public policies related to agricultural sustainability, ecological restoration, zoonosis control and disease prevention in urban areas, considering essentially nature-based solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jean Paul Metzger is currently Editor-in-Chief of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/journal\/perspectives-in-ecology-and-conservation\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/journal\/perspectives-in-ecology-and-conservation\">Perspectives in Ecology and Conservation<\/a> (Impact Factor = 5.652).
