Boyer Lab news

Dr. Katharyn Boyer’s research lab is located at San Francisco State University’s Romberg Tiburon Center for Environmental Studies, on San Francisco Bay near the tip of the Tiburon Peninsula.  We are broadly interested in the ecology of coastal habitats, with a focus on tidal marshes and seagrass beds.  We work at the interface of basic and applied ecology, with the philosophy that restoration and conservation activities will be most effective when there is understanding of the processes that govern natural communities. Our work is largely experimental, conducted in field, greenhouse, and mesocosm settings.  Please click the links above and below to learn more about who we are and what we do.

June 2011:  Rosa Schneider was awarded a Graduate Research Fellowship from the National Estuarine Research Reserve System to investigate the causes of rarity in an endemic plant, the Suisun Thistle (Cirsium hydrophilum), found only in Suisun Marsh. 

Congratulations, Rosa!
