Cristian Orlando

Dr Cristian Orlando is an ecologist affiliated with The University of Sydney's BIO department. His research focuses on behavioural ecology, terrestrial ecology, plant biology, and ecological applications. He integrates cross-disciplinary approaches with advanced technologies such as remote sensing and chemical ecology to study habitats, species ecology, and interactions at various scales. His work aims to contribute to biodiversity conservation and support sustainable land management practices.

Dr Cristian Gabriel Orlando is an ecologist specializing in animal behaviour and conservation. His research explores how olfactory cues influence foraging decisions and survival strategies in mammalian herbivores. He investigates the role of sensory deception in wildlife management and conservation, particularly for threatened species like koalas. His work includes analyzing habitat use, predator avoidance, and the impact of environmental changes on wildlife populations. Orlando also examines the use of advanced technologies, such as hyperspectral imagery, to improve habitat prediction and conservation planning. His studies highlight the importance of information processing in ecological interactions and the potential of sensory tactics in managing wildlife.
