Cath Lovelock is an Associate Professor at the Centre for Marine Studies at the University of Queensland. Her research is focused on the ecology and ecophysiology of coastal plant communities, and how they respond to environmental influences, including climate change in determining plant community productivity and diversity. Current experimental work covers a wide range of coastal plant communities including macroalgae, mangroves and cyanobacterial mat communities, with particular interest in assessment of how nutrient enrichment influences mangrove ecosystems, how mangroves mediate exchanges between the land and sea and how fauna influence the productivity of macroalgae.
