Our lab studies how spatial structure, landscape heterogeneity, and movement patterns alter population dynamics and community stability.  We are especially interested in understanding broad-scale patterns in species coexistence, synchrony and stability, and species interaction strengths.

We apply mathematical techniques and tools from complex systems science and aim to tie community ecology to restoration and conservation, bridging theoretical, empirical, and applied ecology. We use a variety of field observations, microcosm experiments, and both theoretical and statistical modeling approaches.

We are in the Botany Department and the Program in Ecology at the University of Wyoming, located in beautiful Laramie, WY.
