| Mark Moritz is a Professor and Wicked Scientist in the Department of Anthropology at the Ohio State University. He uses a transdisciplinary approach to study complex social-ecological systems. His collaborative research projects with colleagues in the US and Cameroon have examined how pastoralists sustainably use common-pool grazing resources in a situation of open access, whether and how pastoral mobility affects the transmission of infectious livestock diseases, and regime shifts in floodplain fisheries. Currently, his research, teaching, and service focus on preparing undergraduate and graduate students for life beyond the degree. |
