  • Fish Ecology and Management Studies
  • Marine and fisheries research
  • Census and Population Estimation

Among their recent publications are two papers:

  • "The influence of blue crab movement on mark-recapture estimates of recreational harvest and exploitation," published in 2021 in the Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences
  • "COMBINA: coastal ocean marine biosecurity international network of the Americas," published in 2025 in Biological Invasions

These papers address topics related to population monitoring and biosecurity in marine environments, reflecting their interdisciplinary engagement with both ecological dynamics and applied management issues.

Frequent collaborators in their research include:

  • Robert F. Semmler
  • Matthew B. Ogburn
  • Robert Aguilar
  • Elizabeth W. North
  • Marjorie L. Reaka-Kudla

The scientist has published in journals such as the Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences and Biological Invasions, supporting a focus on marine and environmental studies through these venues.
