Institution: University of Minnesota

Description of Expertise:

My research focuses on the ecology and management of aquatic invasive species. I have a particular emphasis on ecology and control of submersed aquatic macrophytes, including biological control of Eurasian watermilfoil and integrated control of it and curlyleaf pondweed. I am also particularly interested in approaches to enhance and restore native aquatic plants after invasive control.
