At the Post lab, they conduct research on ecological dynamics in time and space,
and across levels of organization from individuals to ecosystems.

Work in the lab focuses mainly on ecological consequences of climate change, with applications to
wildlife conservation. Although most of their research is based in the Arctic, their shared interests are
broad and encompass other biomes as well.

Dr. Post is an advocate of combining meticulous observation of natural processes, controlled field
experimentation, and analytical modeling. The lab employs all three approaches to investigate the
effects of climate change on life history variation and phenology, population dynamics, and community
dynamics and stability. Integration of phenology, population-, and community dynamics, is a major focus of their long-term work at a field site near Kangerlussuaq, Greenland.
