Marina Golivets


Research Interests

I am a plant and invasion ecologist with a background in ecology, forestry, and horticulture and a strong focus on quantitative data synthesis. My main research interests include plant competition, multispecies invasions in forest ecosystems, scale-dependence in the drivers of plant invasion, and trait–environment relationships.


Current Projects 

BioDT: A Digital Twin to help protect and restore biodiversity

Past Projects 

AlienScenarios: Developing and applying scenarios of biological invasions for the 21st century
