Laura Richardson

I am interested in how ecological communities are organised by anthropogenic and biophysical processes interacting across space and time. Combining trait-based approaches and high-resolution biophysical modelling, I assess the influence of interacting ‘natural’ drivers and local human impacts on the ecological structure of reef-fish assemblages across local to regional scales. I am a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow, working in collaboration with the NOAA Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center.
