The Basics of Science C.V.'s.: A Sample Research C.V.

Curriculum Vitae - Research Emphasis

• Development of quantitative theory of hierarchical structure in ecological systems.
• Analysis of how ecological communities reflect environmental heterogeneity at different scales.
• Numerical study of foraging behavior with short and long range movement in heterogeneous environments.

• Field study of the impact of avian predation on Anolie lizards in the eastern Caribbean documents the importance of differences in spatial scale between prey and predators.
  
• Theoretical analysis of spatial scale and environmental heterogeneity in models of predator-prey communities.
  
• Analytical and numerical works show how species interactions can sharpen underlying environmental patterns and how heterogeneous environments can stabilize predator and prey populations.

• Investigation of primary events of bacterial photosynthesis.
• Isolation and spectral analysis of photosynthetic reaction centers.

• Theoretical and field study of ecological communities.
• The roles that spatial patterns and processes play in shaping communities.
• How populations and processes that act on different spatiotemporal scales affect the behavior of ecological systems.
• Influences of disturbance size and frequency on landscape structure.

• Lectures and weekend outings, emphasis on alpine ecology, animal tracking, and wilderness skills.
