Biography

Robinson (Wally) Fulweiler is an ecosystems ecologist and biogeochemist whose research focuses on answering fundamental questions about energy flow and biogeochemical cycling of nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and silica, as well as carbon and oxygen across a variety of environments. He is especially interested in how anthropogenic changes affect the ecology and elemental cycling of ecosystems at various scales, including local nutrient loading and regional/global climate change. His current research is centered on the transformations and ultimate fate of nitrogen in marine environments and the impacts of climate change on benthic-pelagic coupling. Dr. Fulweiler maintains the Coastal Ecology & Biogeochemistry Lab and holds a joint appointment in the Department of Biology at Boston University. He teaches courses in Oceanography and Marine Biogeochemistry.
