Causes and Consequences of Sea Urchin Populations in the Galapagos Islands

Faculty Sponsor: Jon D. Witman

Marc conducted research in the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador to determine the larval recruitment patterns, population size structure and community impact of three species of sea-urchins. His data served as a resource for those who make decisions about total allowable catch of sea urchins and their predators.
