Etienne LalibertéAssistant Professor &
ARC Discovery Early Career Researcher
School of Plant Biology
I am a plant ecologist with interests in both natural and human-modified ecosystems. I use observational and experimental approaches to understand vegetation patterns, especially plant functional composition and diversity. I am also interested in the consequences of changes in vegetation for ecosystem functioning. My research is strongly field-based, but rooted in theory.
