Research Interests
I seek to understand the effects of
environmental change and other disturbances on community composition,
invasibility, and associated ecosystem processes. I am particularly
interested in studying these questions in ways that specifically
address the spatial and temporal dynamics of community change. I
conduct much of my research in recently restored plant communities
because of the importance of restoration ecology as a conservation
tool. In addition, using restored communities has allowed me to
conduct large-scale experiments in which I can track the assembly of
communities with a controlled initial community composition and spatial
structure. I maintain a strong link between modeling, experimental, and
observational studies in my research.
