Short presentation
Professor in limnology. My major research interest revolves around the effects of consumer/resource interactions on community structure and dynamics in aquatic systems. I am especially interested in how changes in adaptive traits, such as behavior and morphology among individuals, affect species interactions and how these effects, in turn, may propagate through the food web affecting the community structure and dynamics.
