Profile

I have a broad range of research interests including invasion biology, larval and community ecology. I am generally interested in the processes structuring marine soft-sediment communities. Including why marine invertebrates make the habitat choice decisions they do, what the consequences of habitat choice decisions for individual fitness are, and how anthropogenic habitat modification affects population processes and community organisation. Recent research has focussed on determining the direct and indirect effects of invasive habitat-forming invasive species on native organisms, and integrating studies conducted at the community level with those on life-history traits.

Current Projects include:

  • Facilitation in marine benthic communities
  • Life-history consequences of habitat choice
  • Impacts of invasive species on the demography of native invertebrates
  • Settlement cues for marine invertebrate larvae
