The Integrative Marine Ecology Lab (IME Lab) decodes ocean ecosystems by linking physical and eco-evolutionary processes to the distribution and persistence of life across scales.
We quantify physical disturbance as substrate mobility to test how disturbance regimes structure adaptation and constrain the distribution and persistence of marine ecosystems across scales.
Eco-Evolutionary Processes
Connectivity & Persistence
We integrate genomic and environmental observations to understand how ecological and evolutionary connectivity interact across scales to shape species distributions and persistence.
