研究领域

More specifically, my research focuses on understanding and predicting the evolutionary consequences of environmental change in marine ecosystems. Projects in my group cover a range of topics: How does environmental change modify selection on key life history traits? How does it modify the expression and structure of quantitative genetic variation? How are life histories shaped or constrained by the combined effects of these evolutionary forces? I draw on the remarkably diverse life-histories of sessile marine organisms (invertebrates and seaweeds) to answer such questions, doing so in nature wherever possible and with particular focus on ecological interactions as agents of selection.
