Research Description
I am interested in the ecology and distribution of plant-fungal symbioses and how these relationships are affected by climate change stressors like warming and wildfire. I use field and greenhouse studies to understand how the availability of mycorrhizal mutualists or plant pathogens across the landscape might affect seedling fitness, species coexistence dynamics, and ultimately, forest composition.
