I study how environmental variation (in space and time) affects the diversity and functioning of ecological communities. I use laboratory, mesocosm, field, and data mining studies with temporary wetlands (including vernal pools and rock pools) to address questions at all ecological levels (individuals to ecosystem). My students and I research wet and dry phase taxa, including bacteria, algae, plants, invertebrates, and vertebrates. My research also encompasses food webs, metacommunities, latitudinal gradients, spatiotemporal linkages, eutrophication, species invasions, and disturbance ecology. Courses taught include General Ecology, Population and Community Ecology, Quantitative Methods in Biology, Introduction to Scientific Analysis, Seminar in Ecology, and Community Metrics. |
