What the facility does
Ecology and biology of marine invertebrates and seaweeds, climate change
Areas of expertise
We study the effects of climate change and other stressors on benthic (bottom-dwelling) marine plants and animals. We have facilities to study the effects of warming and ocean acidification on these species.
