Funding will help Gracie measure changes in tissue chemistry in her leaf decomposition experiment on Dauphin Island, while Darrien will use his money to support some of his work investigating Atlantic Ghost Crab stress responses across urbanization gradients in the gulf coast!

Our group was excited to present some of our ongoing restoration work in dunes and salt marshes and our want to integrate fungal symbionts into coastal restoration practices.]]><![CDATA[Kayla defended her thesis!!!]]>Tue, 14 Oct 2025 07:00:00 GMThttp://www.jeremiahahenning.com/home/kayla-defended-her-thesisWe are excited to announce that Kayla passed her thesis defense today! Her thesis explored the impact of nutrient addition and disturbance on dune arthropod assemblages and their connection with coastal vegetation. We are so pumped!]]><![CDATA[Darrien is back & gracie starting her ms in the lab!!!]]>Fri, 15 Aug 2025 07:00:00 GMThttp://www.jeremiahahenning.com/home/darrien-is-back-gracie-starting-her-ms-in-the-labSuper excited that Darrien Caudle is back in the lab to start his PhD in the Environment & Society program! Darrien's dissertation will combine ecology and socioecological impacts of global change in coastal ecosystems and perception of restoration.

Gracie is starting her MS in the lab and will be teaching BLY 101 labs this fall, her thesis will explore leaf decomposition in several species of dune species in response to disturbance and nutrient addition!  Additionally, she will also be working on project that identifies fungal symbionts in a rare, endemic orchid from Wisconsin. Two different, but two very cool chapters.]]><![CDATA[Summer projects fully in swing!]]>Thu, 05 Jun 2025 10:12:48 GMThttp://www.jeremiahahenning.com/home/summer-projects-fully-in-swingSummer season kicks off a busy time in the lab, this week we got Anya's SURF project started by collecting crabs to perform some behavioral trials in collaboration with the Perez Lab and Mai planted 4 species of coastal plants to measure microplastic uptake.
