using natural environmental gradients as a window into what is coming

Research & Goals

Our research

What we study

Ocean acidification and warming are changing the conditions marine animals live in. We want to know which biological mechanisms allow some invertebrates to cope with these changes, and whether populations already living in acidified or warmer waters show signs of adaptation.

How we do it

We combine population genomics, transcriptomics and microbiota analyses with measurements of metabolism. Most of our sampling takes place along natural gradients, where conditions expected for the future already exist today, and we complement it with experiments in the lab.
