> Hi Everyone:
>
> Today we are lucky to have our own Max Castorani, a post-doc in UCSB's 
> Marine Science Institute, tell us about his current research:
>
> Title: Linking data and theory to understand the abundance and 
> distribution of marine foundation species
>
> Abstract: Among the most fundamental challenges in ecology is to 
> understand the factors that shape the distribution and abundance of 
> species. My research combines long-term, large-scale observations, 
> manipulative experiments in the field and laboratory, and mathematical 
> and statistical models to determine how biotic and abiotic factors 
> structure spatial and temporal variation in the abundance of marine 
> foundation species. I will highlight several tests of ecological 
> theory that have improved our understanding of how population 
> processes (e.g., demographic connectivity), species interactions 
> (e.g., competition, facilitation), and ecosystem changes (e.g., 
> disturbance, abiotic stress) shape coastal marine and estuarine 
> habitats, including kelp forests, seagrass meadows, and mussel beds.
>
> 4PM, TODAY
> MSRB Auditorium
> Snacks and coffee served at 3:45 in the courtyard! PLEASE BRING YOUR 
> OWN MUG!
> See the EEMB event calendar for more info,

> paper to this talk.
