Research in the Rotjan lab focuses on marine ecology and global change. The main goal is to examine how marine species, communities, and ecosystems respond to the complex multitude of stressors emerging in the contemporary world ocean, and how they will respond to the future ocean change that we expect in the coming decades. In other words, we take a multi-level and systems ecology approach to examining global change. We are also big fans of ocean exploration, which is critical and necessary to set and calibrate ecological baselines. We are a part of a growing global movement to democratize the oceans, making marine science and exploration accessible and available to all.
