My research program aims to characterize the feedbacks between ecological and evolutionary processes in determining distributions and coexistence patterns of interacting species. Specifically, we propose to: increase our knowledge of the (i) relatedness of, and ecological interactions among, predaceous diving beetle species, and (ii) ecology, morphology, and historical patterns of spread of freshwater populations of prickly sculpin, in western Canada. To achieve these goals, we will combine field surveys, experimental manipulations, and molecular sequencing and reconstruction of species relationships. We will work in two main areas:

我的研究项目旨在描述生态和进化过程之间的反馈，以确定相互作用物种的分布和共存模式。具体而言，我们建议：增加我们的知识（一）的相关性，和生态之间的相互作用，捕食潜水甲虫物种，和（二）生态，形态，和历史模式的淡水种群的多刺杜父鱼的传播，在加拿大西部。为了达到这些目标，我们将结合联合收割机实地调查，实验操作，分子测序和物种关系的重建。我们将在两个主要领域开展工作：
