Dr. Evelyn Gaiser is Associate Professor at the Department of Biological Sciences, Southeast Environmental Research Center, at Florida International University. She has over 25 years of academic and professional experience in her field. Her research interests include aquatic community ecology, algal biology, wetland ecology, diatom taxonomy,and paleoecology. Finally, Dr. Gaiser is specially interested in studies that examine variation in algal community structure in lakes and wetlands over long temporal scales.
