Welcome to the Subalusky Lab at ​the University of Florida

My research program addresses how ecological processes at the population and community level impact ecosystem function. I am particularly interested in the influence of animal movement and behavior on food web structure and ecosystem function. I use both field observations and field and mesocosm experiments, and I employ a range of methodological approaches, from radio telemetry on animals to estimates of whole ecosystem production. I typically work in wetland and river ecosystems and at the interface of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. I am particularly interested in linking fundamental ecological questions with applied conservation and management approaches.
