Species are being reshuffled across our planet at unprecedented rates due to human-generated stresses like climate change, biological invasion, and habitat loss. What will future ecosystems look like and how will they function in the face of these major disturbances? Dr. Greens research combines field, laboratory, and simulation modelling experiments to discover how ocean food webs will change as range shifted species encounter one another for the first time. Her research will produce newmethods for predicting the distribution and abundance of aquatic biodiversity under future environmental conditions, and ultimately inform management activities to restore and protect ecosystem function.

由于气候变化、生物入侵和栖息地丧失等人为压力，地球上的物种正在以前所未有的速度重新洗牌。面对这些重大干扰，未来的生态系统将是什么样子？它们将如何发挥作用？格林博士的研究结合了野外、实验室和模拟模型实验，以发现随着范围转移的物种首次相遇，海洋食物网将如何变化。她的研究将为预测未来环境条件下水生生物多样性的分布和丰度提供新的方法，并最终为恢复和保护生态系统功能的管理活动提供信息。
