Studying how ecosystems work, how they change, and what that means for people.
We want to understand what drives variation in ecosystem structure and function to better understand the ecological impacts of climate change and habitat modification, and to explore how conservation efforts can be most effective given natural environmental changes.
​Our research includes: 
  • Exploring seagrass ecosystems in British Columbia
  • Experimentally warming aquatic ecosystems
  • Understanding how temperature affects species interactions and ecosystem processes
  • Understanding relationships between marine ecological structure and human seafood-derived nutrition
