Research Interests Dan Brumbaugh, a marine conservation scientist with a background primarily in the ecology and evolution of marine invertebrates, is the Principal Investigator and Coordinator for the Bahamas Biocomplexity Project. In addition to overseeing the general management of the project, he is involved in various degrees in many aspects of the research, though especially in the Habitat and Connectivity Working Groups. He also works to integrate the diverse research activities of the BBP's working groups with outreach and education in The Bahamas, the wider Caribbean, and the U.S. |
