My lab investigates the Ecology of Marine Rocky Shores, combining experimental and mensurative approaches to understand species distribution and community structure in rocky intertidal environments from local to regional scales. Through field work done in Atlantic Canada and other coasts of the world,
we address these research lines:
• Ecology of intertidal algae and invertebrates
• Influences of the ongoing climate and oceanographic change
• Benthic-pelagic coupling and intertidal biogeography
• Predator-prey and seaweed-herbivore interactions
• Algae and mussels as foundation species
• Contributions to general ecological theory

Our lab is located in the beautiful town of Antigonish, Nova Scotia, Canada
