February 2023 Key Largo 'Biodiversity and Eco-Evolution' Workshop

Our second working group is well underway exploring how biodiversity and individual traits alters community responses to hurricanes as well as reviewing what is known about hurricane-driven evolution. Drs. Rolando Santos, Sean T Giery, and Enie Hensel is leading the core of this working group on these investigations with Drs. John Kominoski, Christopher J. Patrick, and Enie Hensel facilitating any organization or resources needed from HERS to keep the research progress going. We currently have about 30 HERS members actively engaged in this working group. Updates on the progress of this working group will be highlighted in our fall 2023 webinars. Stay tuned!
