We study the status, trends and dynamics of populations and communities – insects, birds, amphibians, fish, reptiles, and mammals. Our mission: to understand and predict how and why nature is changing, the consequences of those changes, and what, if any, action is recommended. RESEARCH DATA INTEGRATION We combine multiple data types to estimate species patterns across space and time relative to environmental variables. More on data integration COMMUNITY MODELS We evaluate both individual species impacts as well as critical community responses and metrics of biodiversity. More on community models UNMARKED DATA MODELS We develop models to estimate species abundance and biological parameters from the most widely available data types. More on unmarked data models We are committed not just to open science, but to developing code that is easily accessible and reproducible.

We integrate data across the monarch’s migratory life cycle to determine why they are declining and how these butterflies may fare in the future under climate change. ASSESSING BIRD SPECIES AND COMMUNITY DYNAMICS Even similar bird species can respond differently to climate and environmental variables. We develop models to examine both species and community responses to natural and anthropogenic stressors. PREDICTING MANAGEMENT ACTIONS ON AMPHIBIANS Amphibians need specific environmental conditions to thrive. Working to understand management needs, we create models to predict how conservation actions can impact populations and communities. EVALUATING ANTHROPOGENIC STRESS ON MAMMALS Mammals are sensitive to the ways in which their habitats are altered by humans. We combine multiple data sources to estimate species distributions in relation to biotic and abiotic landscape variables. NEWS WHAT DOES THE ZIPKIN LAB DO? Curious to learn more about our work and why it is important? The College of Natural Science at MSU produced a video highlighting some of the lab’s latest research and its impact on the world. Read about this and more WHY ARE MONARCH BUTTERFLIES DISAPPEARING? Our latest research determined the importance of breeding season weather to the population dynamics of eastern North American monarch butterflies and what the future might hold for monarchs under climate change. Read about this and more DATA-DRIVEN BIRD CONSERVATION PROJECT TAKES WING With a $1.3M grant from the NSF, our lab and Audubon will integrate continential-scale data to estimate and forecast the effects of climate and land-use change on bird populations and communities.

Read about this and more BUTTERFLIES KEY TO EVALUATING INSECT DECLINES With a grant from the USGS Midwest Climate Adaptation Science Center, the lab is working with Georgetown, USGS, and USFWS to shed new light on butterflies using 30 years of data.
