Description

Our research is broadly focused on marine conservation and reef ecology.  We currently work in both coral reef and kelp forest ecosystems studying community dynamics, predator-prey dynamics, herbivory, recruitment and larval dispersal and spatial ecology of fishes.  My lab also runs a large-scale field-based monitoring program of kelp forests in the California current ecosystem with goals of assessing long-term changes due to climate and anthropogenic impacts.
