Biography

My research focuses on the inorganic carbon interactions (in the water column) between metabolic processes of calcification, respiration and photosynthesis in benthic nearshore habitats of temperate (seagrass / seaweed meadows, bivalve reefs) and sub-tropical areas (mangrove, seagrass lagoons, coral reefs) in a context global change and ocean acidification.
