Jane Prince

Jane Prince is an Honorary Research Fellow at the University of Western Australia's Oceans Institute and affiliated with the School of Biological Sciences. Her research focuses on marine and intertidal ecology, with particular emphasis on biogeography, functional diversity, and human impacts on coastal ecosystems.

• Key Research Areas: Marine Protected Areas, Latitudinal Gradients, Functional Diversity, Intertidal Ecosystems, Biogeography

Recent publications highlight her work in modeling intertidal macroalgae distributions, comparing temperate and tropical ecosystem vulnerabilities, and analyzing latitudinal biodiversity patterns in Western Australia. Her research often involves collaborations with institutions like Parks Australia and Rottnest Island Authority.

Grants indicate ongoing engagement with projects evaluating marine parks, ecological assessments of intertidal zones, and reproductive ecology studies of marine invertebrates. She contributes to biodiversity datasets related to Ningaloo Marine Park and Indo-West Australian waters.
