There certainly isn't a shortage of urgent ecological questions that humans must find answers to
WE BROADLY STUDY ...
The ‘Evolutionary Fish Ecology’ Lab at the Department of Marine Sciences uses experimental, field, and modeling approaches to address the central question, how coastal marine fish will cope with the simultaneous changes in their environment caused by global and regional human stressors, and how they are already adapted to environmental variability in temperature, oxygen, or pH.

Oyster habitats were largely destroyed by development, over-harvesting, and pollution — but could their numbers be on the rise? @UConnMarineSci researcher Zofia Baumann explains how the community is coming together to restore CT's oyster populations.
