Dan James Pantone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dan James Pantone is an American ecologist and conservationist with a Ph.D. from UC Davis. A former professor at Texas A&M University, Dr. Pantone is a researcher who has published numerous refereed articles on agroecology and sustainable agriculture. In addition, he is a specialist in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) which he has used to help conserve endangered species. Dr. Pantone has established his notability by publishing scientific publications ranging from the biological control of pests to the conservation biology of endangered species [1].

Presently, Pantone is the editor of Amazon-Indians [2] and the Vice President of the Movement in the Amazon for Tribal Subsistence and Economic Sustainability (MATSES) [3], a non-governmental organization that is providing aid to indigenous people in the Amazon so that they can preserve their culture and lands in a sustainable and independent manner.
