Research Interests Reef Fish Population Processes and Underlying Mechanisms Fish/Habitat Interactions and the Influence of Habitat Degradation on Fish Communities Larval Biology Fish Behaviour Predator-prey interactions I have a very broad range of interests within the field of reef fish population dynamics. My major research field explores the links between life history stages of coral reef fishes, and how events in earlier phases influence subsequent population dynamics. To this end, I have active research programs in the field of maternal effects, larval development and growth, and how individual performance measures of larvae and juveniles influence survival within the confines of their social and physical environment.
