Research summary
AI-generated

Guangqing Chi studies how people, land, and the environment interact using spatial data and statistical analysis. Recent work spans environmental migration, food security in Indigenous and rural communities (including Alaska), health behaviors such as vaccination and abortion access, and sustainability topics like energy transitions and carbon emissions. Many projects apply geographic and spatiotemporal methods, sometimes using large datasets like mobile phone and location-based data.
