Sarah Bailey
I conduct research on aquatic invasive species, focusing on introductions by ships' ballast water and biofouling. This research includes field work to measure the diversity of taxa being transported, and to evaluate effectiveness of management strategies.
Current research and/or projects
Effectiveness of ballast water treatment
Development of methods for ballast water sampling and analysis
Global patterns of aquatic invasions
