Brief synopsis of current research:
I am interested in the structure and organization of ecological communities and in the responses of individuals and populations to their environment. My work has principally concerned communities of fish, particularly those in coral reef habitats, and I recognize and value the intimate links between fundamental ecological research and effective sustainable management. The present focus is on recruitment and juvenile ecology of freshwater and coral reef fishes, and on sustainable management of coral reef systems.
