Research Interest
My broad research interest is community ecology, with particular attention to interspecific interactions, the impacts of global environmental change, and how the former mediates the impacts of the latter. My research goal is to improve our understanding of what determines species fine- and coarse-scale distributions and the composition of communities, with the aim of apply this knowledge to understanding the ecological impacts of changes in environmental conditions. Much of my research has been conducted in collaboration with scientistis from other fields, and I am particularly interested in the potential for incorporating more physiology, physical geography and micro-climatology into ecology.
