Hensel Lab
The Hensel Lab at the University of Florida is studying how biodiversity affects coastal resilience, how climate change restructures food webs and fisheries, how large animals control coastal vegetation, and how we can revolutionize restoration to meet the needs of our rapidly changing planet. Our approach integrates natural history and experimental field ecology with big data synthesis and remote sensing, mechanistically linking pattern and process across scales in coastal ecosystems.
