Thomas Wernberg studies seaweeds in changing environments, including effects of temperature on ecological and ecophysiological performance (recruitment, community development, mortality). His research bridges biogeography, ecology and physiology, and aims to provide support to ameliorate the impacts of changing environments and species responses (invasive species, fouling, herbivory) on biodiversity, humans and human activities now and in the future. A current priority is understanding the ecological and ecophysiological limitations imposed on kelp forest by increasing mean and extreme temperatures.
