Research Interests

My thesis focuses on the distribution of, and search for, prey by North Atlantic right whales. I create modeling tools to determine the impact of ecological processes and currents on the distribution of Calanus copepods, and use those models to understand how right whales find these copepods.
I ultimately aim to combine the use of models and fieldwork to study the ecology of remote areas including deep, polar and sub-polar ecosystems.
