RISE Lab
​(Resilience, Institutions, Society, and Ecosystems)
Welcome to the Resilience, Institutions, Society, and Ecosystems (RISE) lab at Oregon State University!

We are interdisciplinary environmental social scientists studying how people, institutions, and ecosystems interact under climate and market risks and emerging technologies, and how policy and governance can better support resilient livelihoods and landscapes.

Led by Dr. Yu Lu, the RISE Lab's mission is to inform individual and institutional decision-making, agricultural and environmental policy, and governance, while supporting agricultural and natural resource communities, livelihoods, and ecosystems facing climate and market risks.
