Profile

After completing a string of internships in the mangroves of southwest Florida, Justin Robbins went back to school to study their interaction with climate change. Examining the role of nitrogen led him to Dr. Lydia O'Halloran's lab, where he is studying the role of nutrients and disturbance on grassland ecology. His research interests include how both human and natural systems function and interact, and wetlands. When he isn't conducting research, his interests include games, high fantasy, and puns.
