Chloe Hayes

Dr. Chloe Hayes is a Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Adelaide's School of Biological Sciences, within the Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology. Her research focuses on fish ecology and climate change impacts, particularly in ocean warming hotspots and acidification seeps. She investigates functional ecology aspects including behavior, physiology, microbiome dynamics, and eDNA in tropical and temperate species.

Her work examines ecological responses to climatic extremes in critical ecosystems like the Coorong wetlands, combining field surveys, molecular tools, and literature synthesis. She explores how ecosystems adapt to rapid environmental changes, emphasizing resilience under future climate scenarios.

No scientific awards or formal advisees are listed. Her research contributes to understanding species range shifts, physiological adaptations, and ecosystem resilience.
