John Dolan style=”font-family:”>has worked on plankton ecology for over 25
years in systems ranging from eutrophic estuaries to the
oligotrophic South Pacific. His research subjects are plankton
protists, especially ciliates and dinoflagellates and research
topics are biodiversity, species packing, and the relationships of
form and function.
David Montagnes style=”font-family:”>is an aquatic ecologist. He combines
modelling, laboratory, and field studies investigations into the
ecophysiology and behaviour of protists- aquatic taxa forming a
rich assemblage and occupying environmentally important niches. His
research themes include the flow of energy and biomass in
ecosystems and how abiotic and biotic properties and anthropogenic
perturbations alter individuals, populations, and
ecosystems.
Sabine Agatha style=”font-family:”>is a ciliate taxonomist. She has spent over 20
years describing and classifying ciliates mostly from marine
habitats by combining morphologic and genetic approaches. The
biodiversity, evolution, and biogeography of ciliates are her main
research topics.style=”font-family:”>
Wayne Coats style=”font-family:”>is a recently retired protistologist. His
research encompasses ecology, morphology, life history, and
taxonomy of dinoflagellates and ciliates. Parasitism and mixotrophy
are featured themes of his work.style=”font-family:”>
Diane Stoecker style=”font-family:”>is a biological oceanographer. Her laboratory
and field projects focus on microzooplankton and their grazing on
phytoplankton and role as prey for copepods and other
mesozooplankton. Plastid retention and mixotrophy in ciliates and
dinoflagellates and their effects on population dynamics and
trophic transfer are other favorite research topics.
