General research themes
Priorities of my work
My research projects to identify traits relevant to models and environmental change prediction fall into one or more of three major categories:
- Protistan diversity and taxonomy-function relationships
- Phytoplankton succession & community dynamics
- Phytoplankton biogeography
Using one or more of these tools:
- Experimental culturing
- Models (ecosystem & physiological)
- -Omics (nucleic acid; population or community)
