Ross Cameron is an Environmental Horticulturalist and Director of Research at the Department of Landscape Architecture, University of Sheffield. His research interests centre around urban green infrastructure and climate change mitigation, with a strong emphasis on optimising plant species choice with respect to ecosystem function and services (city cooling, thermal insulation, flood tolerance, biodiversity enhancement and influence on human health and well-being). He is interested in identifying those plant species robust enough to tolerate urban conditions (both current and future), whilst meeting their specifications for performance. Recent studies include investigations into the insulation effects of roof garden plants, and how small-scale plant communities influence human well-being and provide restoration from physiological stress.
