Research Themes
Climate Change & Global Stressors
-
Ecological impacts of climate change, variability and extreme events (e.g. marine heatwaves)
-
Current and future global change pressures, including invasions and eutrophication
Biogeography & Ecosystem Shifts
-
Species distributions, range shifts and tropicalisation of temperate marine systems
-
Broad-scale biogeographic patterns and the ecology of transition zones
Seaweed Ecology & Species Interactions
-
Interactions between seaweeds, their environment and associated organisms
-
Trophic linkages driven by the export and consumption of detached reef algae
Resilience, Adaptation & Thresholds
-
Effects of climate and human stressors on resistance, recovery and ecosystem function
-
Physiological costs of stress, limits to adaptation, and the role of genetic diversity
