Kenneth Sebens is an ecologist whose research focuses on marine benthic ecology, coral reef ecology, and the hydrodynamic effects on marine benthos. Since 1979, he has been running research projects that follow community population dynamics in the rocky subtidal zone of Massachusetts, contributing to one of the most extensive and long-running studies of marine coastal habitats in the world. He also conducts similar work on rocky subtidal communities in the San Juan Islands. With over 30 years of experience as a diving scientist, his research on coral ecology emphasizes various sources of nutrition for reef corals, the influence of hydrodynamics on coral particle capture, nutrient uptake from seawater, and the calcification and growth rate of corals. His work has garnered recognition, including a fellowship from the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and a Fulbright Senior Scholarship.
