Research

My main interests are quantitative ecology, biophysics and informatics. My big academic challenges at the moment are:

  • Linking reef geometry, biodiversity and ecosystem function
  • Coral demography, morphological traits and life history trade-offs
  • Trait Databases and supporting the Open Traits Network

Teaching

  • MBIO 640, Coral Reef Structure and Function
