Welcome to the Raimondi-Carr lab. Our combined research and teaching interests focus on a wide variety of aspects of the basic and applied ecology and evolutionary biology of coastal ecosystems. The coastal ecosystems that we study span the land-sea interface, including coastal tributaries, estuaries, rocky intertidal, and kelp forests. Our research is aimed at understanding the processes that influence geographic variation and dynamics of the populations and communities of fishes, invertebrates and algae that constitute these ecosystems and the relationships between species life histories and the structure and functions of populations, communities and ecosystems. Our goal is to advance our understanding of these systems and use this understanding to inform management and policy. For more information on our research interests, access to publications, and information for prospective graduate students, visit our individual web pages.
