Examining how the magnitude of wildebeest carcass and hippo dung input influences production and food web dynamics in a large Kenyan river Senior Laboratory Instructor in the Department of Biology at the University of Victoria Coordinated and managed laboratories and instructors for the following courses: Animal Behaviour, Survey of Invertebrates, and Chordate Zoology Doctoral Student in the Department of Biology at the University of Victoria Measured the impact of climate-driven changes in precipitation and introduced guppies on tropical island stream community structure and ecosystem function Research Associate at the Institute of Pacific Island Forestry (US Forest Service) Managed data and conducted field and laboratory work for two projects that examined a) effects of invasive pigs and strawberry guava on soil erosion and b) implications of precipitation changes on Hawaiian stream flow Masters Student in the Department of Zoology at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale Quantified the energy flow through a Neotropical stream food web before an amphibian decline to predict the implications of the decline Laboratory and Field Technician in the Department of Biology at the University of Notre Dame Managed and assisted several field and laboratory projects centred around determining the occurrence, decomposition, and effects of genetically modified corn and its insecticidal protein (Cry1Ab) in agricultural streams |
