Welcome
The Martyn Ecology Lab at Oregon State University weaves together a number of branches of ecology including plant community ecology, restoration ecology, functional trait ecology, and rangeland ecology to explore rangeland and restoration resilience to climate variability and climate change.
Members of the lab aim to address research questions such as:
- How does competition and the environment impact plant communities?
- What factors contribute to restoration success?
- How can we improve restoration practices to assure restoration success persists into the future?
“I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.”
