Biography
Dr. Larson's areas of interest include human-environment interactions, water resource governance, and social dimensions of sustainability. She is primarily concerned with how and why risk perceptions, environmental attitudes, and ecological behavior vary across distinct social groups, different biophysical settings, and diverse places. With an interdisciplinary background in resource geography and multidisciplinary environmental studies, her scholarship advances knowledge of nature-society relations and the social acceptability and cultural sustainability of natural resource management regimes. Her past research spans topics from alternative farmers' agricultural information needs in the U.S. to international water conflict and cooperation worldwide. Currently, Dr. Larson is conducting research in two core areas: 1) the reasons underlying multidimensional perspectives and conflicting views on water resource governance, and 2) the causes, consequences, and feedbacks of residents' land management practices. While at ASU, much of her work has been situated in the desert metropolis of Phoenix, where she collaborates with multidisciplinary scholars in the Central Arizona;–Phoenix Long-Term Ecological Research (CAP LTER) project and the Decision Center for a Desert City. Dr. Larson teaches classes such as Society and the Environment, Human Dimensions of Sustainability, Geographic Research Methods, and Workshops on Urban Water Governance
