Arley Muth

As a student in the Moss Landing phycology lab, I am interested in processes that effect algal recruitment, diversity and succession. My research will focus on the effects that substrate has on algal communities; specifically the physical properties of substrate such as surface roughness (rugosity) and substrate stability. My study will observe subtidal algal communities that occur on different rock types in Monterey Bay, as well as the Fucus dominated intertidal zone on the west coast of Vancouver Island.
