D Ross Robertson

PeerJ Author

Summary

I have worked on the sexual biology, ecology, population biology, demography and biogeography of reef-fishes throughout the tropical regions of the world, since 1970. I also have two groups of digital apps (websites plus mobile adaptations to them) on neotropical reef fishes. I have been a staff scientist at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute since 1975.
