I have studied aspects of marine and coastal ecosystems since 1997. For six years, I worked in Haida Gwaii and conducted long-term studies for seabird, marine mammals and marine ecosystem process. Research on an endemic petrel in Chile highlighted the foraging habitats used by breeding birds and potential overlap with local fisheries.
My research includes the island ecosystems that support marine species like seabirds, and has addressed questions related to introduced species, the role of seabirds on islands, and the unique plant communities that occur on seabird colonies.
