Bio
Natural populations display an extraordinary range of dynamics in complex ecological communities and ecosystems. Understanding the mechanisms giving rise to these dynamics and how they change as we modify environments, or as we move from one environment to another are challenging problems. Since ecological systems contain many non-linear interactions and feedback mechanisms, there are three key questions that we must answer concerning the dynamics of biological populations: 1) what are the sources of instability causing the propensity to fluctuate? 2) what are the mechanisms arresting the growth of these fluctuations over time or space? and 3) what are the implications of these fluctuations for the dynamics of other species in the community? My long-term research objectives are (1) to discover the answers to these three important questions using aquatic plant-herbivore systems as exemplars, and (2) to develop conceptual approaches that we can use to evaluate general mechanisms governing dynamics in non-linear, complex ecological systems.
