Dr. Guangqing Chi is an environmental demographer with a focus on socio-environmental systems. His research seeks to understand the interactions between human populations and the built and natural environments and to identify important social, environmental, infrastructural, and institutional assets to help vulnerable populations adapt and become resilient to environmental changes. A key characteristic of his research is the attempt to integrate social systems and the built and natural environments in understanding population dynamics by developing and applying innovative spatial and big data methods to traditional and nontraditional data. His current work investigates climate impacts on migration, health, and wellbeing of communities of color, indigenous, low-income, and rural, worldwide. He is an expert in spatial and big data analytic methods and lead author of the textbook Spatial Regression Models for the Social Sciences (SAGE 2019). 

Dr. Chi has received more than $50 million through 60+ grants from NSF, NIH, NASA, DOD, USDA, USDOT, SSRC, and others. He has authored or co-authored more than 170 publications, including 100+ peer-reviewed journal articles, that contribute to foundational advances in environmental demography, spatial demography, and the population–infrastructure nexus. He has published op-ed articles for Slate, Philadelphia Inquirer, The Conversation, among others. His work has been highlighted more than 2,000 times by such news outlets as National Public Radio, Huffington Post, and Christian Science Monitor. His work on developing spatial methods for small-area population forecasting was awarded the E. Walter Terrie Best Paper Award twice by the Southern Demographic Association. He served as a deputy editor of Demography, and he currently serves on the editorial boards of Social Forces, Population and Environment, and Spatial Demography. He is an author for the Human Health chapter of the Sixth National Climate Assessment (NCA6). His work is often collaborative and transdisciplinary, aiming to create significant impacts through the integration of research, education, community engagement and outreach, and sometimes international collaboration.
