Approaches
We use a variety of tools in our lab including DNA extractions, waterborne corticosterone assays, laboratory toxicity assays, behavioral assays, mesocosm studies, and field research.

Measuring algae abundance

Mesocosms (artificial ponds) at our the Ecological Research Facility

Effect of leaf litter on water quality

Control
(no pesticide)

Endosulfan
(Periphyton bloom)

Diazinon
(phytoplankton bloom)

Getting ready to plant corn for a eutrophication study.

Lab behavioral assays


Swabbing tadpoles and extracting DNA to sample their microbiota



Nothing better than being out in the field!
