Decision-making under environmental law and the intersection of science and law. Thomas T. Ankersen is an attorney and Assistant in Law at the Center for Governmental Responsibility in the University of Florida College of Law where he teaches and conducts research on a wide variety of domestic and international environmental law and policy issues. He directs the Center's Mesoamerican Environmental Law Program, a program of applied research, policy development and training that lends supports to governmental and non-governmental organizations in Central America and Mexico. He recently launched the Center's Conservation Law Initiative, a pilot effort supported by the John D. and Katherine T. MacArthur Foundation, and designed to focus on the development of innovative legal and policy instruments and institutions to promote conservation in the United States and abroad. In Florida, Ankersen has focused his efforts in the area of coastal law and policy, water law, and legal issues associated with protection of biological diversity. He also serves as a faculty advisor to the College of Law's annual Public Interest Environmental Conference. He is an affiliate faculty member at the University of Florida's Center for Latin American Studies.
