Recherche

Mon programme de recherche est centré sur trois thèmes: (1) l’écologie spatiale (2) les causes et les conséquences de la biodiversité dans les écosystèmes aquatiques et (3) l’écologie d’invasion. Globalement, ces thèmes sont liés par mon intérêt pour l’écologie communautaire, particulièrement dans les communautés de planctons. Dans mes recherches, j’utilise une variété d’approches essentiellement basées sur le terrain, pour des études à grande échelle de lacs entiers à des études à plus petite échelle de mésocosmes et de la modélisation. Je cherche à lier mon intérêt de la théorie écologique fondamentale de comment la dynamique de populations structure les communautés aquatiques avec les enjeux qui affectent les écosystèmes d’espèces exotiques, le changement climatique globale et la qualité de l’eau.
