Broadly, my research addresses global change in the ocean. I am particularly interested in the mechanisms that determine population and community responses to global change, the consequences for human society, and the approaches that can foster sustainable management. The ocean is a fascinating environment for testing ecological and evolutionary theory, in part because it has such contrasting physical conditions, geographic patterns, and taxonomic diversity compared to ecosystems on land. This contrast frames much of my thinking on global change questions. My current work investigates climate impacts on coastal communities, patterns of collapse risk across taxa, and the demographic mechanisms underpinning population responses to global change.
