The Irwin Group uses statistical modeling techniques to understand niches, traits, and interactions within marine microbial communities. A new paper confirms the value of trait-based approaches in investigating the mechanisms underlying phytoplankton biomass dynamics, and in predicting the community response to environmental changes.
