WELCOME - My research seeks to understand what factors drive patterns and processes in natural aquatic ecosystems, and how biological communities and ecosystem processes respond to anthropogenic stressors such as modification of natural hydrologic regimes and species introductions. My collaborators and I use a combination of large-scale field studies, experimental manipulations, quantitative functional traits, and analyses of long-term databases to investigate drivers community assembly, species extirpations and invasions, food-web structure and dynamics, and ecosystem function.
