Interests
Ecosystem health and sustainability; environmental indicator development; effects of pollution;
management of freshwater natural resources.
Summary
My research program includes applied concepts related to the ecology and conservation of aquatic
systems with emphasis on freshwater fish and crayfish. My research investigates practical problems in
water pollution and resource management. The goals of my research are to determine the function of
community dynamics in freshwater systems. My studies involve applied research focused on the use of
anthropogenically modified habitats affected by landscape change, contaminants, and disturbance
gradients within watersheds. My studies use aquatic biological assemblages to evaluate patterns,
develop indicators, and evaluate biological response associated with stressor gradients.
