Below are publications that have come from the Hovel lab at SDSU, dating back to 2004 when Hovel lab students began publishing papers from their graduate and undergraduate research. Publications in this list that include many authors are primarily products of our lab’s participation in the Zostera Experimental Network<\/a>, a worldwide collaboration of researchers studying the ecology of eelgrass (Zostera marina<\/em>) habitat. Student authors are denoted with an asterisk. <\/strong><\/p>\n

To get a good idea of the kind of projects completed by students in the Hovel Marine Conservation Ecology Lab, see publications in this list that begin with $, which came from SDSU graduate or undergraduate student projects.
