A systems ecologist by training, Dr. Petersen's research focuses on quantifying flows of energy, cycles of matter and feedback as a control agent influencing the development of
complex systems. A major thrust of his current research and work with Lucid focused on the use of real-time feedback on the environmental performance of buildings as a mechanism for engaging, educating, motivating and empowering communities of building users to conserve resource use.
