Main profile
Evan is an ecologist studying how anthropogenically altered species interaction networks impact terrestrial ecosystems, with goals of predicting biodiversity responses to global change and advancing basic theory on species coexistence. At SESYNC, he focused on the seed dispersal mutualism at the global scale to assess how changing plant-frugivore networks will impact plant range shifts under global change and natural forest restoration. His work in the Mariana Islands used a case of ecosystem-wide seed disperser loss to understand how vertebrate mutualists maintain forest biodiversity.
