We investigate the Ecology and Biogeography of Marine Rocky Shores, including these themes:
•  Ecological benthic-pelagic coupling along the Atlantic Canadian coast
•  Intertidal biogeography of the Atlantic Canadian coast
•  Oceanology and upwelling along the Nova Scotia coast

•  Nonconsumptive effects of invertebrate predators on barnacle and mussel demography

•  Algae and mussels as foundation species
•  Phenotypic plasticity in seaweed-herbivore systems
•  Environmental stress as a predictor of species biodiversity
•  Spatial scales of variation in biological communities
•  
Ecological effects of intertidal sea ice
•  Epiphyte-host interactions in macroalgal beds
•  Population dynamics of clonal and unitary seaweeds
•  Abundance of life-history phases in red algae
