- Research Interests
My research is a mix of community ecology and macroecology, with a dash of life history interests. I am primarily an empirical ecologist with a field ecology background. Officially, I'm interested in the long-term dynamics of communities - how communities respond to environmental changes or shifts in the identity of the dominant species. My core field site is the Portal Project, a long-term research site initiated by James H. Brown and associates in 1977. Unofficially, I'm broadly curious and go where my curiosity takes me.

- Portal Research
Morgan is the PI in charge of the collection of the rodent and weather datasets. Her research interests include understanding how communities respond to perturbations such as climate fluctuations, habitat change, and the colonization and extinction of dominant species.
