About Christopher McQuaid

Christopher McQuaid, With an exceptional h-index of 65 and a recent h-index of 32 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at Rhodes University, specializes in the field of Marine ecology.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

Thermal tolerances of littorinid snails from temperate and subtropical South Africa

Intraspecific genetic lineages of a marine mussel show behavioural divergence when exposed to microplastic leachates

Similar metabolic responses of co-occurring post-settlement mussels to temperature change despite distinct geographical distributions

Thermal stress gradient causes increasingly negative effects towards the range limit of an invasive mussel

Marine macroalgae of the Agulhas Marine Province of South Africa: biodiversity, exploitation and potential for aquaculture

Euendolithic Infestation of Mussel Shells Indirectly Improves the Thermal Buffering Offered by Mussel Beds to Associated Molluscs, but One Size Does Not Fit All

Understanding the effects of climate change on Southern Ocean ecosystems

Symbiont-induced phenotypic variation in an ecosystem engineer mediates thermal stress for the associated community
