Nancy Golubiewski is a Research Ecologist at the New Zealand Centre for Ecological Economics. She is currently working on a project to evaluate the ecosystem services provided by natural and managed landscapes located within a Maori iwi's ancestral land. She has also contributed to NZCEE's projects on urban material/energy flow accounting and the development of a genuine progress indicator. She remains active in the field of urban ecology. Her research interests center around anthropogenic perturbations of the environment, especially the ecological consequences of land-use/land-cover change. From the United States, her previous projects include investigating the implications of urban sprawl on carbon storage in Colorado, soil recovery after the cessation of grazing in New Mexico, and the long-term trajectories of structure and composition of forests located on abandoned agricultural fields in North Carolina. She works at a variety of scales, from field studies to regional analyses. She holds a B.Sc. from the School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, a Master's of Environmental Management from Duke University's Nicholas School of the Environment, and a Ph.D. in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology from the University of Colorado-Boulder.
