Dawn Parker is a computational social scientist with specialization in housing markets and an internationally recognized expert in land systems modelling. Dawn’s research focuses on the development of fine-scale models that link the drivers of land-use change with their socioeconomic and ecological impacts. Her most recent work examines interactions between land markets, landscaping, and carbon sequestration in ex-urban landscapes, and modelling the co-evolution of urban transit networks and residential neighbourhoods via land and housing markets.
