We are a diverse group of ecologists working on both basic and applied research in the fields of marine ecology, conservation biology, population ecology, and fisheries science. Our students work from the Oregon Coast to the Caribbean, Colombian Pacific, Gulf of Alaska, Bering Sea, and beyond specializing in habitat assessment, species interactions, population distribution, and response of populations to human perturbations. Our lab members play active roles in finding solutions to local, regional, and international conservation and management problems.
