Welcome to the Pace Aquatic Ecology Lab Website
Our lab focuses on ecosystem ecology with an emphasis on food webs and biogeochemistry. We work in a variety of environments including the Northern Highland Lake District of Wisconsin/Michigan, reservoirs in Central Virginia, and coastal lagoons on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. We are currently conducting research on leading indicators of regime shifts, harmful algal blooms, effects of invasive species, and a variety of other topics. Our research is united by questions about the structure and function of aquatic ecosystems and the causes and consequences of changes in these systems.
Note to Prospective Students
We are currently not taking any graduate students.
