DESCRIPTION:Echinoderms (such as sea stars and sea urchins) are a marine p
 hylum that play an important ecological role in many ocean habitats.  They
  are also a group that have been well studied in determining responses of 
 marine species to important changes in the ocean such altered ocean produc
 tivity\, acidification and warming.  In this talk\, I discuss what we have
  learnt from the group in terms of developmental\, life-history and popula
 tion responses to environmental change.  This includes research on echinod
 erms in tropical reef CO2 vents in Papua New Guinea\, temperate ecosystems
  and polar regions\, as well as long-term inter-generation laboratory expe
 riments.  I discuss broader questions around the ability of the group to a
 dapt through physiological plasticity and inter-generational adaption.  La
 stly\, I briefly discuss research we are currently undertaken as part of m
 y visit to Cambridge and the Natural History Museum (London).
