Michael Barton is a geoarchaeologist and anthropologist whose research centers on the dynamics of socioecological systems, expecially in the context of hunter/gatherers and small-scale agricultural societies. His expertise includes Quaternary landscapes, geospatial technologies, computational modeling, complex systems science, evolutionary theory, and lithic technology.
His research has focused primarily in the Mediterranean, western Eurasia more broadly, and western North America
Barton is Director of the interdisciplinary Center for Social Dynamics and Complexity, and heads the Graduate Faculty in Complex Adaptive System Science.
Barton's interests center around long-term human ecology and landscape dynamics with ongoing projects in the Mediterranean (late Pleistocene through mid-Holocene) and American Southwest (Holocene-Archaic). He has done fieldwork in Spain, Bosnia, and various locales in North America and has expertise in hunter/gatherer and early farming societies, geoarchaeology, lithic technology, and evolutionary theory, with an emphasis on human/environmental interaction, landscape dynamics, and techno-economic change. Quantitative methods, increasingly critical to archaeological research and social science in general, and are an important focus of his research, especially emphasizing computational modeling, spatial technologies (including GIS and remote sensing), data science, and visualization.
Barton is a member of the open source GRASS GIS international development team that is making cutting edge spatial technologies available to researchers and students around the world.
The Mediterranean Landscape Dynamics project, which Barton directs, combines computational modeling and interdisciplinary fielswork to study the emergence of coupled human and natural landscapes, and long-term interactions of agricultural land-use practices and landscape change in the ancient Mediterranean, with support from the National Science Biocomplexity in the Environment and Coupled Natural and Human Systems programs.
He also directs the CoMSES Network and CoMSES CoRe, an international research network and NSF Big Data Spoke facility to promote open science, knowledge sharing, reproducibility, and best practices in emerging cybertools in the socio-ecological sciences.
Barton also co-directs collaborative projects with the National Center for Atmospheric Research. One of these projects is building a computational tool set for integrating global climate models and global socio-economic models. A goal is to better assess the socio-economic impacts of climate change over the next 30 years. A second collaboration brings together storm modeling, social science and social media data, and computational modeling of social information networks to study the dissemination of hurricane warning in today's information-rich society, and the ways in which people make crucial decisions about risk.
