Community ecology with a major emphasis on aquatic ecosystems. Especially interested in how major ecological processes, such as competition (i.e., bottom-up forces), predation (i.e., top-down forces), and keystone species (i.e., intermediate, strong regulators, often in the middle of the food web) structure freshwater communities and in turn how these findings can be used to manage aquatic ecosystems.
