BIO

Moslem Rostampour is an accomplished rangeland ecologist and natural resources engineer with expertise in rangeland management, ecosystem modeling, and applied ecology. His research spans both experimental and applied approaches, focusing on the interactions between vegetation, soil, and livestock in rangeland ecosystems. He has conducted extensive work on plant community dynamics, soil-plant relationships, and rangeland restoration, with particular attention to sustainable management practices.

Rostampour has been actively involved in curriculum development and teaching at undergraduate and graduate levels, covering topics such as rangeland ecology, advanced statistics, ecosystem modeling, and rangeland management practices. He has also contributed to multiple national projects on rangeland assessment, restoration, and sustainable utilization.

He has received numerous awards recognizing his academic and research excellence, including first rank in both the Master’s (2006) and Ph.D. (2009) entrance examinations in Natural Resources Engineering – Rangeland Management, Exemplary Faculty Member and Supervisor awards, and recognition as Distinguished and Exemplary Researcher of the University.

His work integrates applied research, education, and capacity building, aiming to advance the sustainability and productivity of rangelands in Iran and beyond.
