Bo Yang is regarded as a leading scholar in landscape performance assessment and urban green infrastructure, with more than 35 funded research projects on those topics. His iconic co-authored book, Evaluating Landscape Performance: A Guidebook for Metrics and Methods Selection (with the Landscape Architecture Foundation), was downloaded from more than 40 countries. As a pioneering research leader in LAF's Case Study Initiative, he not only directed the triple-bottom-line evaluations of nine built landscapes, but also authored many of the standard methods and best practices that are used to teach landscape performance to practitioners and students. A prolific and dedicated researcher, some of Bo's other areas of interest include environmental planning and technology, stormwater management, elective vehicle (EV) site planning and design, urban tree performance, and landscape history and theory in China and East Asia. Currently the Associate Dean for Research, College of Architecture, Planning, and Landscape Architecture (CAPLA), Bo received the 2019 President's Esteemed Faculty Award from the University of Arizona and the President Award from CELA in 2018. He is a model collaborator and frequently involves faculty from other disciplines such as architecture, planning, real estate development, in his work. Through his integrative endeavors in research, teaching, community engagement, and leadership, Bo's methodological framework of landscape performance assessment has become a catalyst for generating new knowledge in demonstrating the environmental, social, and economic benefits of sustainable landscape designs.
