Anna Weber

Anna's research, focusing primarily on the Brazilian Amazon, integrates indigenous knowledges, remote sensing, and field-validated dendrometric data. In these methods, she aims not only to assess tree species’ response to increasingly severe drought, but also to interrogate how ecological models, maps, and taxonomies reproduce or resist the colonial infrastructures that continue to underpin tropical ecology. She draws primarily from the fields of Critical Biogeography, Anticolonial and Indigenous Ecologies, and Situated Ecologies, to develop a framework that values collaborative, relational, and non-extractive modes of inquiry.
