Laborator\ of Phillip Label Fishes are the most diverse vertebrate group and provide opportunities to study many aspects of behavior, ecology, and evolution. We primarily study how fish are adapted to different habitats and the behavioral ecology of species interactions. Current research focuses on fish acoustic communication. We are also conducting a long-term study of the marine biology of Johnston Atoll, Central Pacific Ocean. Johnston Atoll has been occupied continuously by the military since the 1930s and proved a unique opportunity for assessing the biological impacts of island industrialization and effects on reefs. Johnston Atoll is the site of the US Army's chemical weapons demilitarization facility, JACADS. Laboratory of Ivan Valiela A focus of our work is the link between land use on watersheds and consequences in the receiving estuarine ecosystems. The work examines how landscape use and urbanization increase nutrient loading to groundwater and streams. Nutrients in groundwater are transported to the sea, and, after biogeochemical transformation, enter coastal waters. There, increased nutrients bring about a series of changes on the ecological components. To understand the coupling of land use and consequences to receiving waters, we study the processes involved, assess ecological consequences, and define opportunities for coastal management. A second long-term research topic is the structure and function of salt marsh ecosystems, including the processes of predution, herbivory, decomposition, and nutrient cycles. Calcium Imaging Laboratory This laboratory investigates the roles of calcium patterns in development. Our main tool uses the aequorins, a family of luminesc
