Eco-evolutionary dynamics in floating aquatic plant communities
My work focuses on how rapid evolution may mediate community response to environmental change. Using duckweeds (Lemnodeae) as an experimental system, I study how ecological processes such as community assembly, stability, productivity and coexistence are altered when the populations also evolve over equivalent timescales.
