Interests

In general, my research interests are environmental and comparative toxicology, and water pollution biology.  Specifically, I am studying the effects of water pollution such as acid coal mine drainage on macroinvertebrate community structure.  I am particularly interested in water mite assemblages, and interactions between water mites and aquatic insects.  In addition, I am beginning to study the effects of nitrate and nitrite on the hematology of aquatic insects and the embryology of fish.
