Pettit, Neil - Edith Cowan University

研究领域

Neil’s research interests include riverine vegetation ecology at a community and population levelas well as more general research interests including riparian vegetation dynamics, the effects of altered flow regimes on riparian vegetation and general ecological processes in freshwater aquatic systems. Other areas of interest include understanding ecological processes in freshwater aquatic ecosystems, particularly importance of variability and links between biogeochemistry and food webs and how this can inform natural resource management and development.
