Welcome to the Kelp Ecology Lab at San Diego State University (SDSU). We are part of the Department of Biology's Ecology Program Area. Research in our lab focuses on the physiology, population biology, ecology and biogeography of seaweeds, with an emphasis on eastern Pacific kelp forests. Our research integrates organismal biology, population and community ecology, with a strong emphasis on quantitative and experimental techniques to assess spatial and temporal patterns in coastal marine communities. We do our work in a variety of locations such as: California, Washington, Alaska, Mexico, Chile and Peru. We invite you to explore our webpage and learn more about our research.
