Current Research


Blue Carbon

Picture

​Goal: To find ways to better manage blue carbon ecosystems (seagrasses, saltmarshes, mangroves, wetlands) to maximise opportunities for carbon capture and storage.

Seagrass Resilience

Picture

​Goal: To investigate factors that mediate resilience in seagrasses, including: genetic diversity, plant demography, sediment chemistry, and microbes.  The research is designed to generate practical information that will improve management of declining seagrass populations.

Rigs-to-Reefs

Picture

​Goal: To evaluate environmental costs and benefits of converting obsolete oil and gas structures into artificial reefs.
 

Microbial Carbon Dynamics

Picture
​Goal: This project seeks to determine the contribution of microbes to breakdown and production of carbon within coastal ecosystems.
