Professor Smith’s research interests focus on invertebrate predator-prey interactions in marine systems, and on the pathways and ecological consequences of marine biological invasions. He is currently testing for induced morphological responses of invading crab predators and native molluscan prey to each other after introductions have occurred. He also studies the importance of shipping and non-shipping pathways as sources for marine biological invaders in New England coastal waters.
