Individual to community level effects of freshwater browning on fish
Freshwater aquatic ecosystems are home to rich biodiversity but are vulnerable to many forms of environmental change. Freshwater browning is one such environmental change, and lakes across northern North America and northern Europe have experienced dramatic increases in freshwater browning over the past few decades. My core research centers around examining how freshwater browning can influence individual to community level traits in fish. My work will therefore contribute to the goals set out by QCBS to promote world class research in biodiversity science.
