We analyze the interactions among marine ecology and biodiversity, fisheries, socioeconomics, climate change, and more.
Biology
Coastal Ecology
Understanding the ecology, biogeochemical environment, marine conditions, and societal impacts of nearshore environments ranging from wetlands and estuaries to the edge of the continental shelf.
Academics
Centers, Labs, and Programs
We take advantage of molecular genetic approaches to examine diverse questions in ecology and evolution.
CalCOFI is a long-term, interdisciplinary, cross-sectoral ecosystem research program off the coast of California that holistically studies the physics, biogeochemistry, and biology of the marine environment to inform the sustainable management of marine resources in the context of climate change
Providing services on coastal and marine science and policy issues.
CCE-LTER
Investigating nonlinear transitions in the California Current coastal pelagic ecosystem.
Studies coral reef ecosystems to answer fundamental questions of population biology, trophic dynamics, and spatial ecology.
Biological oceanographer and marine ecologist.
Dedicated to generating and disseminating scientific information that has a direct, positive impact on conservation and management issues and policies in the region.
The Human Ecology Laboratory groups together students and researchers to explore the relationships between people and the environment through time. In particular, the lab focuses on understanding Social Vulnerability related to Climate Change.
Levin is a marine ecologist who studies benthic ecosystems in the deep sea and shallow water.
