Research summary
AI-generated

Heather Glon studies coastal marine invertebrates, with two main strands of work: the biology, invasion patterns, and taxonomy of sea anemones (especially the species Metridium senile) in various regions worldwide, and the early life stages, temperature tolerance, and population monitoring of the American lobster in Maine. This research combines fieldwork, monitoring surveys, and genetic/taxonomic methods to understand how these species respond to environmental change and spread into new areas.
