Jonathan W. Moore is a Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Simon Fraser University, where he holds the Liber Ero Chair in Coastal Science Management. His research focuses on Aquatic Ecology and Conservation, particularly concerning how human activities impact coastal ecosystem dynamics. His work primarily revolves around stream and lake systems, with a particular emphasis on food webs and the application of various ecological theories. Moore's current research aims to deepen our understanding of species interactions and disturbances that drive ecosystem processes and community dynamics in freshwater environments. He investigates critical ecological questions about the consequences of species additions and extinctions caused by human activity, especially focusing on populations of Pacific salmon, a species of significant ecological and cultural importance. His research combines experimental field studies with modeling and stable isotope techniques to explore ecological impacts comprehensively. Moore believes that a deep understanding of the ecological consequences of human activities is essential for effective management and decision-making.
