Thomas J Trott

PeerJ Author & Reviewer

Summary

Tom Trott started his career in marine science with studies on chemoreception by marine organisms using behavioral and electrophysiological methods. Soon after he began his current research path investigating small and large scale patterns of distribution among nearshore coastal populations of macroinvertebrates. This work contributed to the Census of Marine life through the NaGISA and Gulf of Maine Census Programs. Including a historical perspective, his research has been extended to questions concerning ecosystem function and the roles of rare and abundant species therein.
