Welcome!

The Deep-Sea Fish Ecology Lab studies the role that fishes play in deep-sea ecosystems. We are interested in their foraging strategies and energetics and the role of environmental variability plays in mediating their food-web roles. As shallow water fish stocks have been depleted fishers are moving into deeper waters. Therefore, some of our research addresses the need for information on little studied deep-water species. You will find descriptions and publications about these research topics on this web page.

Are you fascinated by the bizarre creatures that call the deep sea their home? This website is also devoted to the basic biology and ecology of deep-sea fishes. Hopefully the information here will provide a reference for K-12 and college students interested in these fascinating creatures.
